APC Members In Ekiti State Praises Gov Fayemi Over His Nomination

    The All Progressives Congress, APC in Ekiti State has com­mended and thanked Presi­dent Muhammadu Buhari for nominating former Governor Kayode Fayemi as a member of the Federal Executive Council.


It said by that gesture, the President was sending a signal that hard work and vision to faithfully serve the nation would not be over­looked in the reward system of his administration.

The party through its Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatunbosun, said in a statement in Ado-Ekiti, that Buhari’s gesture was also a testimony to the life of honour and devotion to duty which marked out Fayemi as a dependable and forthright compatriot always eager to lend him­self to patriotic service of the nation.

The APC spokesman assured the President that he had made a right choice and could always count on Fayemi as a dependable lieutenant, always eager to advance the course of democracy and good gover­nance, which hallmarked the President’s change agenda to lift the country out of poverty and restore hope among Nigerians.

“Fayemi fits into the change agenda espoused by President Buhari. In the four years as the governor of Ekiti State, he raised the bar of good governance and posted benefits of dem­ocratic representative gov­ernance to the level never witnessed in the state since its creation.

“We are rest assured that he will bring the same spirit to bare in steering the wheel of the change agenda to the satisfaction of the President and to the applause of Nigerians,” Olatunbosun said.

He urged those allegedly nursing scheme to scuttle his screening to have a change of heart, as Fay­emi was a rare breed who had set an international benchmark that could not be rubbished by local dis­content fueled by political prejudices.

“Fayemi is an inter­national scholar whose services are needed in all four corners of the world. His pedigree and practi­cal demonstration of his abilities had been tested in his many life-lifting pro­grammes and infrastruc­ture development schemes in Ekiti State.

“Besides, this is his re­cord of transparency and accountability in Ekiti State, which we believe is what propelled President Buhari to pick him as the minister.
