The immediate past governor of Ekiti State and All Progressives Congress chieftain, Dr Kayode Fayemi, has said there will be no automatic return ticket for National and State Assembly members in the state in 2027.
Fayemi, who spoke at an APC stakeholders’ meeting in his Isan Ekiti hometown on Thursday evening, said that the federal and state lawmakers should go back home and work for Governor Biodun Oyebanji’s second-term bid as a form of continuous assessment.
Fayemi, who noted that Oyebanji had performed well, even in the area of appointments, said, “Let me say that in politics, you can’t finish the work; let us support and continue to work for our man who is doing well as a governor, a very capable man for the job, of which we know if we support him again, Ekiti people will accept him.”
Fayemi, who stated that leaders of the party were behind Oyebanji, added, “If those in the National and State Assemblies want to get the same treatment we leaders are giving the governor, they should go and work at home. If leaders in their districts and constituencies tell us they are capable and worthy, we will make decisions for them.
