I’ll sustain Fayose’s populist governance —PDP candidate

PEOPLES Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the July 14th governorship election in Ekiti State, Professor Kolapo Olusola, has promised more goodies for the people of the state, saying  he would not deviate from the populist approach to governance by Governor Ayodele Fayose.

Professor Olusola said  he would build on the relationship that had been laid by his principal with the people of the state by ensuring that their moods were adequately gauged  before siting any project.

He said he would be strategic in planning by consulting widely and know where the shoe pinches to know the exact project to site in any town, assuring that this won’t be done arbitrarily the way the past administrations in the state allegedly did.

He said these on Friday  while commissioning two block of market stalls and  four bore holes donated  to Ifaki Ekiti by the Secretary to the State Governor, Dr Modupe Alade.

Olusola lauded Alade for the projects, saying these were done in line with the grassroots approach being adopted by Fayose in project execution in Ekiti.

“There is no way you can pass through Governor Fayose that you won’t value development. Mrs Alade did these for his people based on request and that accounted for the popularity of our leader and hisgovernment.

“I want you to support our government in the coming election, so these good projects can continue. Let me assure you today, I will never derail or renege on the populist approach laid down by Governor Fayose if you vote for us in the coming election,”  he said.

Mrs Alade condemned the immediate past Government of Dr Kayode Fayemi for  scrapping the University of Science and Technology established by former Governor Segun Oni in the community.
