Wife
of a former governor of Ekiti State, Mrs. Feyisetan Fayose, on Monday predicted
that her husband, Ayo, would return to the Ekiti State Government House
as the elected governor in 2014.
The former governor’s wife said this
in Ado-Ekiti during a meeting she had with the women wing of the Peoples
Democratic Party in the state.
She said Fayose was the best aspirant
in the PDP, adding that he would win the governorship poll.
Fayose promised the women in the state
that she would fight for their interest by the time she would return as the
first lady of the state.
She said, “I have served as the wife
of the most active, action-packed, hardworking, courageous man and friend of
the common man- Mr. Ayo Fayose, your former governor and the incoming governor
come 2014.
“I can authoritatively say today that
history will repeat itself with your cooperation. My husband, Ayo Fayose, will
return to the Government House Ekiti to finish his divine assignment.
“You know him to be a selfless man who
is committed to Ekiti course. He believes in Ekiti so much. I have
come today to announce to you that God has promised to restore him
for our deliverance in 2014.”
She however solicited the cooperation
of members and chiefs of the PDP to support him to pick the governorship ticket
of the party.
She said she would soon embark on a tour
of the 16 local government areas in the state to drum up support for her
husband.
Fayose’s wife urged the warring
factions within the PDP to unite to enable them to wrest power from the ruling
Action Congress of Nigeria which came to power on October 16, 2010.
She noted that women in the
state were now being marginalised but promised to set up an institution that
would protect the lives and rights of the women if her husband was voted back
into power.
