Mr Ayodeji Adu, a Special Assistant on Local Government
Affairs under the Ayo Fayose administration in Ekiti, has defected from the Peoples Democratic
Party to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Adu, along with some PDP supporters in Afao Ekiti, announced
their defection when the campaign train of the APC House of Assembly candidate
in Irepodun/ Ifelodun State Constituency II, Hakeem Jamiu, arrived the
community on Wednesday.
The former governor’s aide, who spoke for the defectors,
said they were captivated by Gov. Kayode Fayemi’s “sterling” leadership
qualities in taking the decision.
“This decision to dump PDP for APC was borne out of patriotism
and it is for the betterment of my state
and country home
“Afao Ekiti, despite producing the governor of the state for
eight years is still in shambles without meaningful development, hence the need
to embrace the right ideas that can take the town out of the current economic
and social despondency
” I pledge my commitment to the success of the APC candidate
in Afao-Ekiti. I want to assure that the APC will have a block vote in the town
come Saturday, ” he said.
It was gathered that Jamiu assured the people of the state
that the next assembly would not be a rubber stamp under the Fayemi
administration.
“Gov. Fayemi is exposed and I know that he will see the new
legislative arm as partners in progress,’’ he said.
