Ayodele Fayose, governor of Ekiti
state, has mockingly told the All Progressives Congress (APC) to hire Ifeanyi
Okowa, governor of Delta state for its primary scheduled to hold on Friday.
Okowa chaired the committee that
conducted the governorship primary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in
Ekiti state, on Tuesday.
Aspirants and observers had
described the exercise as transparent and credible.
In his remarks at the close of
the exercise, Fayose said he would keep Okowa in the state till Friday so he
could help the APC with their primary election.
“We will keep Okowa here till
Friday to help APC, if not they will not have any candidate. They will still
continue to beat themselves,” he said.
“They can’t conduct congresses,
they do not represent the minds of the masses.”
Reacting, however, Okowa said he
is not part of the APC and cannot help them with their primary.
“I decline to conduct the primary
for APC. They need me back in Delta,” he said.
APC primary election which was
conducted last Saturday by Tanko Al-Madura, governor of Nasarawa state, was
marred by violence.
