Former Ekiti governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose, on Monday said he would defeat the incumbent governor, Kayode Fayemi, in the 2014 governorship election.
Fayose told newsmen in Ado-Ekiti at the inauguration of his campaign organisation that history would repeat itself the way he defeated the then incumbent governor in 2003, Chief Adebayo Adeniyi.
The former governor, who said he was “ moved by the mammoth crowd of party (PDP) supporters,” said he had “the magic wand to win election any time any day in Ekiti State.’’
He described his followership, good will and political structure as the “hidden treasures that cannot be equalled by anybody.’’
Fayose also identified “the grace of God as well as prayers of the people” as positive factors propelling him, adding that he was the only one who could deliver the state to the PDP.
He advised the PDP against conceding to calls to zone the 2014 governorship position to the southern part of the state.
