Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi

Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi has formally declared his intentions to seek re-election in the next gubernatorial elections through appointments of Campaign Managers.

In the statement, Fayemi said: "Following the groundswell of support by leaders and members of our party as well as the generality of Ekiti people from the nooks and crannies of Ekiti State and in the Diaspora, it is with a profound sense of gratitude and responsibility that I today accept the calls by our people to seek re-election for a second term in office. You have made the calls, and today I have opted to act in deference to those sacred calls by throwing my hat into the ring for a free and fair contestation for the exalted office for a second term."

Fayemi said further in the statement: “My decision to heed the calls of our people following the plethora of endorsements I have received from the leaders and members of our party does not translate to the closure of the political space for contest. I therefore look forward to fair competition from my co-aspirants within and outside our party. I look forward to very robust debates and issue- based campaign.”

He appointed Hon. Bimbo Daramola of Ekiti North Federal Constituency 1, as the Director General of his re-election campaign.

Hon. Biodun Omoleye, the Special Adviser (Policy and Strategy) in his government will act as the Deputy Director General of the campaign, while Sanmi Omiata will serve as the in-house Communications Director of the campaign.

Bunmi Adelugba will serve as the Director of Finance and Administration and Dimeji Daniels is the campaign spokesperson.
