The media aide of Ex-Governor Fayose, Lere Olayinka, who reacted to the petition by Olujimi, said: “The question to ask Senator Olujimi on her call for the dissolution of the Atiku/Obi campaign council in Ekiti is that in what capacity is she asking for such? What is her status?
Olayinka said “the secretary of the South West is the chairman of the zone, Chief Eddy Olafeso; the Chairman of the council is former Deputy Governor Olusola Kolapo; the South-West Coordinator is former Governor Fayose and the Director General of the campaign at the national level is Senator Bukola Saraki. So what is the status of Senator Biodun Olujimi in this arrangement?”
According to Olayinka, “the PDP in Ekiti State will no longer accommodate dissidents. If she likes, she can be accommodating the dissidents in her own right.”
He said: “She can be accommodating the supposed PDP members of State House of Assembly who served in the House to sack the elected 16 local government council chairmen; 16 vice-chairmen; 16 secretaries of the local governments and supervisors; 32 advisers and 132 councillors in the state who are PDP members and the foot soldiers of party in the state and these lawmakers in their selfishness suspended them.”
He insisted that the campaign council of the state for Atiku and Obi would be inaugurated at 2pm on Tuesday, adding that “the South West coordinator, former Governor Fayose will come to the state alongside the South West zonal chairman of the party to inaugurate the council.”
