Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose has released a viral video in his attacks against Senate Minority Leader, Biodun Olujimi.
The ex-governor, in a video circulated on various digital platforms, on Thursday, called on the people of the state to vote against Olujimi in the February 16 National Assembly polls.
The battle between the two leaders has polarised the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state ahead of the January 14 visit of the presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar for a rally in Ado-Ekiti.
Fayose and Olujimi had on Tuesday set up parallel PDP Presidential Campaign Councils with offices at different locations in Ado-Ekiti with their loyalists queuing up behind them.
Olujimi, who represents Ekiti South in the Red Chamber of the National Assembly, accused Fayose of drawing a list of members contrary to the one agreed by party stakeholders.
Olujimi has former Minister of State for Works, Prince Dayo Adeyeye of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as main opponent in the battle for Ekiti South senatorial chair.
However, Fayose, who wore a white long-sleeve kaftan over a white trousers, with a black cap to match, advised Ekiti electorate to vote Atiku and other PDP candidates, expect Olujimi.
The video is trending on Facebook, YouTube and other social media platforms.
In the video, Fayose said: “Ekiti Kete o, my name is Ayo Peter Fayose, Osokomole. My beloved teachers, my beloved workers, okada riders and entire people of Ekiti State.
“I commend to you, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, our President-in-waiting. I commend to you all candidates of PDP in Ekiti except Senator Abiodun Olujimi.
“That is, we must not return Abiodun Olujimi to the Senate. I know you will do exactly what I ask you to do.
“I love you and may God bless you, this is Act 1, Scene 1.”
