The leadership of the Labour Party in Ekiti State, has accused Governor Kayode Fayemi of causing crisis in the state
The National Chairman of the party, Chief Dan Iwuanyanwu, said this in Ado Ekiti, yesterday, during inauguration of the Interim State Working Committee of the party, noting that Fayemi was responsible for the pasting of the posters of Hon. Opeyemi Bamidele, with the logo of Social Democratic Party, SDP.
The poster of Opeyemi flooded Ado Ekiti, with an impression that he had dumped LP for the SDP.
The party, LP also warned Fayemi to stop expending state’s resources on frivolities , alleging that the governor had been employing divisive method to rip the state apart in efforts to perpetuate himself in office.
On Bamidele’s posters that flooded Ado Ekiti with the inscription, ‘We have finally traced our root,” Iwuanyanwu, who was represented by his Deputy, Joseph Akinlaja, said the action was targeted at causing confusion in LP and creating the impression that the party is flouting the Electoral Act.
But the All Progressives Congress' Director of Media, Mr. Segun Dipe,
described the allegation as misdirected, saying the ruling party
cannot be pasting posters for Bamidele, an arch-enemy of the APC.
He said: “APC will not popularise Bamidele’s inordinate ambition by associating him with any party.
"We are more focused and we are getting our members ready for registration that will start soon and that is where our focus is and not on any frivolous issue.”
