The Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, on Tuesday, named Kayode Oso, as his possible successor.

Gistlover.com however recalls that Oso was Fayose’s Commissioner for Works, who resigned his appointment about two years ago, on the grounds of ill-health.

This was made known in a statement issued by Fayose’s Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, and made available to Gistlover.com.

Fayose said: “If I were asked to pick a candidate to succeed me, I would have picked Kayode Oso straight off. But I have called him into the room and told him to allow me seek God’s consent concerning it. I have called my Deputy, Prof. Kolapo Olusola, I have also called Bisi Omoyeni into the room, and asked them to allow me to seek God’s consent. Whoever God chooses, we will support among the aspirants.

“I have nothing against Prince Adedayo Adeyeye, I have great respect for him, from Ministerial appointment to Chairmanship at Ekiti State University, and then his recommendation to the party at the national level. I have always stood by him, I wouldn’t have done that for someone I don’t love, so mischief makers had better looked elsewhere to play their game.

“We won’t allow anybody to destroy the goodwill being enjoyed presently by the PDP, because there is no doubt about our party’s popularity in Ekiti today. I want to assure you that nobody will impose anybody on you. With me here, you will all get justice.

“Those we imposed in the past disappointed us, the system should be allowed to run its course.”
