The Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, said he
had learnt his lessons from his initial support for the
embattled factional National Chairman of the Peoples
Democratic Party, Senator Ali Modu Sheriff.
Fayose said this when the ex-chairman of Daar
Communications, Chief Raymond Dokpesi, took his
PDP national chairmanship campaign to Ekiti.
He said, “I must tell you that I have learnt my lessons
from my past experience. I will not openly identify or
campaign for a candidate any longer. As part of our
great party in Ekiti, I ‘m assuring you that I do not
have a personal candidate and God knows I have not
spoken to my people about any candidate.
“We will allow God to choose for us this time by
ensuring that all aspirants have a level-playing
ground.
“I have learnt my lessons on Ali Modu Sheriff and I
take full responsibility for the consequences.
Imagine, if we have allowed him to get there, with the
way he is now behaving, it would have been worse
than this.”
Fayose, while expressing concerns about the crisis
rocking the party, lamented that some people were
merely paying lip service to reconciliation efforts in
the PDP because of selfish interest.
