EKITI 2026: Past governors’ so called endorsement of Oyebanji, self-serving against Ekiti interests,-Otunba Fayose

…says ex-governors, Oyebanji targeting state’s treasury

The governorship hopeful in Ekiti State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), Otunba Emmanuel Fayose has berated past elected governors of the state for endorsing Governor Abiodun Oyebanji for second term.

In a statement he issued in Ado-Ekiti on Saturday, Otunba Fayose described the reported endorsement as selfish and against the interest of the people of the state.

“The reported endorsement of Governor Oyebanji by his predecessors in office, mainly former governors Niyi Adebayo, Peter Ayodele Fayose, Olusegun Oni and Kayode Fayemi is not only shameful but selfish and self serving.

“I am making this assertion based on the current realities in the state, which has made Ekiti an underachiever in the comity of states in the country,” he said

Commenting further on the development, Otunba Fayose stated that the prime motive of the endorsement is the common patrimony of the state, which he said they (the past governors) have hijacked since 1999.

“Since 1999, every administration in Ekiti State has betrayed the people especially our suffering youth and abandoned senior citizens.

“Healthcare is in ruins. Roads are death traps.Unemployment is at its worst peak. Not a single major investor has been attracted in 25 years.

According to him these former governors did not build or attract a single factory to the state, saying the youths are on okada. He said Ekiti people are very hard working yet cannot afford one meal per day couple with bad roads across the state. unemployment keeps increasing on a daily basis with security challenges, lack of good health care, no stable electricity, no water etc he said what are endorsing if not failure?

“Yet today, the same failed leaders under the banner of the Ekiti Former Governors Association, with their loudmouth spokesperson, former Governor Ayo Fayose are shamelessly rallying behind another incompetent administration”

“These guys are enjoying their monthly benefits regular as paypack, yet the present governor open the state’s treasury for them as a conduit pipe to their advantage at the detriment of our people,”
he said.

Otunba Fayose however urged the people of the state to stay vigilant in their quest for a new leadership paradigm which his aspiration symbolizes.
