ABUJA – The All Progressives Congress APC has congratulated Dr. Kayode Fayemi, its candidate, saying his election as Governor of Ekiti State symbolizes the people’s rejection of the “crude and pedestrian” politics of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP.

In a congratulatory message signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi, the APC noted that “Dr. Fayemi ran an effective and positive campaign focused on his agenda of rebuilding the economy of the state and returning its lost values of integrity, prudence and decency”.

While commending the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC and other stakeholders “for their admirable role in making the Ekiti gubernatorial election one in which the people’s will has prevailed”, APC said its victory “is a demonstration of their trust and confidence in Dr. Kayode Fayemi’s ability to deliver on his campaign promises and a rejection of the crude and pedestrian politics of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP.

“We assure the people of Ekiti, and indeed all Nigerians, that our Party is best placed to move the country forward and resolve the seemingly intractable problems that have held us back”, the party stated.
