The outgoing Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has threatened to quit the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) anytime from now.
The governor made this known in a report by The Punch on Monday afternoon.
Fayose made the threat following the holding of the PDP’s National Convention in Port Harcourt, Rivers State over the weekend.
“After consultations, I will speak clearly to Nigerians,” he said. I will renounce my “membership of the PDP anytime from now.”
Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, says he will renounce his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, anytime from now.
A former Vice-President, Atiku Abubakar, was declared the winner of the party’s presidential primary, defeating the Sokoto State Governor, Aminu Tambuwal, Senate President Bukola Saraki, and eight others.
Fayose spoke after the National Convention held on Saturday in Port-Harcourt, Rivers State on Saturday.
In a press statement he later issued to journalists in Ado Ekiti, the governor said he had no regret supporting Tambuwal with others to clinch the PDP’s ticket.
“We have no regret aligning with Governor Wike to support Governor Tambuwal for the presidential ticket and no apologies either.
