The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has
congratulated the newly elected governor of Ekiti State, Mr. Ayodele
Peter Fayose, describing his victory at the Saturday’s election as well
deserved.
PDP National Publicity Secretary, Olisa
Metuh in a statement on Sunday described the Ekiti governorship poll as
credible, free and fair, adding that it was an unequivocal statement on
the preference of the PDP by the entire people of Ekiti state, and
Nigeria.”
“We are particularly elated that the will of the people of Ekiti state prevailed and we sincerely congratulate them for realising their yearning for a truly democratically elected administration in their dear state.
“The outcome of this election confirms the popularity and acceptability of the PDP and its candidate, the governor-elect of Ekiti State. It brings to the front burner, the genuineness of the crowd that throng our rallies across the country, especially in Ekiti state ”, the party said.
The PDP also attributed the victory to its “strict adherence to the principles of internal democracy, the kernel of transparency in the conduct of our governorship primary which produced a popular candidate, the overwhelming choice of party members.”
It said the victory was also a clear confirmation of its position that the APC is not really on the ground and has no genuine followership even in states that are under its control.
The PDP charged the APC to imbibe the spirit of sportsmanship by accepting a clear defeat and congratulating the PDP and the governor-elect, insisting that the handwriting has since been on the wall as evidenced in the massive support Mr. Fayose has been receiving since emerging as PDP candidate.
