FORMER EKITI STATE GOVERNOR AYO FAYOSE RESIGNS FROM PDP

The former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose, has announced his resignation from the main opposition party, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Fayose who served  as Governor of Ekiti State from  2003  to  2007 and  2011 to 2015 on PDP’s ticket announced his resignation from the PDP yesterday.

The former governor, who claimed to have fought for the interest of the party over the years, blamed the loss of the PDP in the presidential election on the leadership of the party.

According to him, the PDP was already fractured before the election, with so many aggrieved aspirants who were allegedly swindled by the leadership of the party on one hand and the inability of the presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar to reach an agreement with the G-5 governors.
