Not Fayemi’s first choice but he was imposed on him by the First Lady of Ekiti state.

Wale Fapounda was Fayemi’s candidate. However, the First Lady preferred Oyebanji. She was also able to win Niyi Adebayo to her side so Fayemi had no choice than to drop Wale and support him.

The former SSG played his cards well by winning over the First Lady. I was rooting for Wale but he did not play his cards well at all. Sometimes, it is not just enough to win the governor to your side, you need to win the support of the influential people around the governor.

Heard many didn't want Wale who is in his own rights brilliant but arrogant.

Maybe too much book entered his head. Good luck to Oyebanji & the PDP candidate.

So many people including party members and traditional rulers moved against him.

It is not enough to be brilliant, a governorship material must be able to relate well with all stakeholders and also accessible.

Apart from not relating well with party members, he was inaccessible to so many prominent Ekiti people. Efforts were made to point out some of these lapses to him but he felt he had the support of the governor who will call every other person to order at the right time. Sadly, things didn’t turn out as he envisaged.

To Fayemi, he wouldn't mind Wale but of course, it's a Party thing.

If that's the case, he stands the chance to loose out.
May our efforts not being in vain.
