Ekiti people to vote Atiku for meaningful development Idowu Bankole The
immediate past deputy governor of Ekiti State and Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP) governorship candidate in the last Ekiti governorship election, Professor
Kolapo Olubunmi Olusola, has implored Ekiti people and people resident in the
state to come out enmass on Saturday to vote for Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and all
the PDP national assembly candidates.
“Reject All Progressives Congress (APC), reject President
Muhammadu Buhari and APC national assembly candidates,” he said.
The former deputy governor, who stated this in Ado Ekiti on
Tuesday through a press statement issued by his media aide, Mr Onaopemipo
Akinloye, said the people needed to end tyranny, anarchy, fascism, insecurity,
hunger, economic stagnation, hunger as well as the directionless policies
of the ruling APC government with their vote. Olusola urged the people to come
out like a Spartan soldier, very resolute to vote for Atiku Abubakar whom he
said has the experience to institute a responsible and responsive government
which will restructure the country and fast forward the country’s economic and
political development. He told Ekiti people not to forget the sins of the
Buhari presidency against the State, such as withholding legitimate funds
belonging to the state for political reasons during the immediate past PDP
administration of Ayo Fayose just to starve the innocent people. “This
uncharitable attitude of the Buhari administration caused the Fayose
administration to owe four months workers salary”, he said. Olusola also accused Buhari of refusing to consider Ekiti for
infrastructural development throughout his four years in power because it was a
PDP -controlled state. “The state is blessed with abundant solid mineral
resources; not withstanding having an Ekiti son superintending over the
ministry, none was ever considered for exploration. You can imagine the
billions of naira earmarked to explore oil in the North. “I challenge the Ekiti
APC that is asking Ekiti people to vote for Buhari to cite what the President
has done for the state. Ekiti people are no fools. 90% of the
infrastructure in Ekiti was put there by past PDP governors. “Ekiti State has
always benefited from the centre whenever PDP was in control” Olusola implored
the people not to sell their votes but that they should protect their votes,
refuse intimidation, be law-abiding and shun violence.
