The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Ekiti State Chapter has declared former Governor of the State, Ayodele Fayose as a betrayal and ingrate to the party for discrediting the party which brought him to limelight.
Penpushing reports that the Chairman of the caretaker committee of the party in the state, Dare Adeleke made the declaration in reaction to Fayose’s comment that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the country was dead and lost its soul.
The Chairman in same vein, asked Fayose to leave the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) instead of publicly ridiculing it, stressing that he (Fayose) had repeatedly betrayed the party that gave him the platform to became governor twice.
Penpushing further reports that Adeleke said Fayose’s actions in the last few years, especially his consistent endorsement of the All Progressives Congress(APC) government in the state, were acts of betrayal that would no longer be condoned.
The party boss alleged that the former governor’s reason for betraying the party was after his attempts to takeover the structure of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti were resisted by members and leaders of the party.
Penpushing also reports that he sàid Fayose has lost his political relevance in the scheme of things in Ekiti state, which he said has made it difficult for people especially party officials and leaders to join him in undermining the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
‘Why has Fayose refused to leave the same party he repeatedly described as a “carcass” and “dead entity”? Eventually, he admitted he was a bitter, disgruntled man, one who betrayed his own party, simply because he didn’t get what he wanted’, he stated.
“Like a soldier who repeatedly sells secrets to the enemy and then complains about not getting promoted, Fayose wants rewards from the same party he undermines. He admitted on air that he supported Tinubu simply because he’s his friend and kinsman, as if Nigeria now runs on tribal sentiment and is ruled by clannish association, not merit’, Adeleke added
“The fact is that Fayose lobbied for control of two local government executives and was rightly denied. If Fayose was truly as politically influential as he claims, he would have moved PDP’s structure in Ekiti to APC or ADC. But not one ward or LGA chairman has followed him,” he said.
Penpushing reports that the Chairman expressed optimism that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) would capture the state from the All Progressives Congress(APC) government in the next year’s poll.
“I assure Fayose, the father and grandfather of betrayal, that the PDP, which he now refers to as “they,” remains strong. We will mobilise true party loyalists, not his APC and ADC-bound jokers who will remain irrelevant back benchers. Let it be known, the PDP will win Ekiti State and I am emphatic about this’, Adeleke said.
Penpushing further reports that the former Governor it would be recalled while featuring on a television programme on Friday, declared that the party is dead and would never win any election in the future.
