Kayode Fayemi, governor of Ekiti
state, says he is not a magician who would make the challenges facing the state
to disappear within a day.
He said this on Sunday while
speaking at Saint Patrick’s Cathedral Church, Ado-Ekiti, where a thanksgiving
mass held for the inauguration of his government.
He was sworn in on Tuesday.
“Yes, we know there are huge
expectation from width and breadth of the state and we won’t disappoint them,”
he said.
“I am not a magician but a child
of the Almighty God because some people believe all the challenges facing Ekiti
state will disappear within in a day. Yes By Almighty God’s grace, it will
surely disappear.”
The former minister appreciated
the Catholic and other churches for their “unwavering support”.
“Our emergence is to make a
difference in the life of Ekiti state and the lives of our people, to serve and
not be served and to show that the power of the people is greater than that of
those in power,” he said.
“We have a lot of work to do and
this is a collective rescue mission, to reclaim our land and restore our
values, so we seek Ekiti kete cooperation. Within the next one year, Gossy
water will be back.”
Felix Ajakaiye, presiding priest
of the church, prayed for Fayemi and Bisi, his wife, and the state in general.
He tasked the governor and his
deputy, Bisi Egbeyemi to work hard to fulfil their electoral promises and
minimise wastage in government.
Dignitaries at the event were
Iyiola Omisore, Social Democratic Party governorship candidate in the last Osun
guber poll; Bamidele Olomilua, former governor of Ondo state; Eniola Ajayi,
Nigeria’s Ambassador to Hungary; Opeyemi Bamidele, a former federal lawmaker;
Adedayo Adeyeye, a former minister, among others.
