By Lateef Ibrahim

Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, on Monday described himself as the record holder of election results in the state.

Fayose disclosed while maintaining that he won’t join the All Progressives Congress, (APC).

He spoke during the APC governorship campaign rally in Ado Ekiti, the state capital.

Earlier, Fayose had endorsed President Bola Tinubu and Governor Abayomi Oyebanji of Ekiti State for a second term.

However, the chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, urged electorates in the state to file out and vote for Oyebanji in the upcoming governorship election in the state.

He said: “I Ayo Fayose, I’m the record holder of the results of the elections, I defeated the last person, I don’t mention names because I’m a gentle man.

“In the whole of the 16 LGAs, I packed all and I also defeated them in over 58 Wards, I defeated them roundly and they congratulated me.

“But I will remove all those titles and hand them over to BOA and for him to become the record holder to win in all the 16 LGAs of Ekiti and win in all the 177 Wards that is taken for granted but when we get to the field, we will contend and see each other on the filed.

“Please do your best to make this election a reality. One thing that won my heart the most is the presence of Segun Oni. He is the icing on the cake coming to put us all together by governor BAO to face tomorrow for our state. It’s a good thing and it would be a model for all states in Nigeria.

“I equally congratulate all the decampees, they should keep decamping but i will never join APC.”
