Ayodele Fayose, governor of Ekiti state, has appealed to the senators from the state to support   Kayode Fayemi, his predecessor, during next week’s ministerial screening.

While all the three senators from the state are of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Fayemi is a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Considering that the party divide may pose a challenge, Fayose asked the lawmakers to know that: “an Ekiti man is an Ekiti man”.

“The Ekiti project belongs to all and everything must be done to support it,” Idowu Adelusi, his chief press secretary, quoted him as saying when he received a delegation of students on Thursday.

“Some people petitioned the national assembly, stating how Fayemi sunk Ekiti into heavy debts but I have told the members not to do that.

“It is God that judges people, not us. You must support him there. They should not go to the senate and oppose Kayode Fayemi, no, they must never do that. An Ekiti man is an Ekiti man. I appeal to everybody, you must support him.”
