Stands Shoulder To Shoulder With Them
Abuja, Nigeria, 15 July, 2018: Former Vice President of Nigeria, Atiku Abubakar, has said that the Peoples Democratic Party had an excellent candidate in Prof. Kolapo Olubunmi Olusola in the Ekiti Governorship election and gave solid support to the state chapter of the party.
The Independent National Electoral Commission has however announced Kayode Fayemi, the candidate of the All Progressive Congress, as the winner of the election.
Narrow as his victory may have been and irregularities notwithstanding, Atiku Abubakar urges all PDP supporters in Ekiti State to remain peaceful and orderly and cooperate with the party at the state and national levels as they determine the next steps.
He commends Prof. Kolapo Olubunmi Olusola, who has shown great restraint and stands in solidarity with Governor Ayodele Fayose, whose commitment to the people of Ekiti continues to inspire Nigerians beyond the state.
“We will continue to stand shoulder to shoulder with them through these difficult times” Atiku said.
