Outgoing Governor Kayode Fayemi has described his tenure as Ekiti governor as “glorious” and thanked the people of the state for keeping faith with him. Fayemi, in a state-wide valedictory broadcast to the people of the state, said he kept faith with all his electioneering promises, as well as worked hard to make the state develop better than he met it. In the address, the outgoing governor said his final exit day in office did not catch him by surprise, saying he had always expected and prepared for it. He described his four-year tenure as “glorious,” saying he used his tenure to make poverty history among the people, as well as instilled decency in governance, contrary to widespread belief.
“As I step away from office, I can say the promises I gave are the promises I kept. I have made Ekiti a much better place than I met it.
“There is time for everything and a season for every purpose under heaven, earthly things are temporary and infinite.
“Governance is a continuum, administrations come and go, our electoral laws do not allow holding office in perpetuity,” Fayemi declared.
As the people of Ekiti State are waiting patiently for the inauguration of the Governor-elect, Mr Ayo Fayose tomorrow, no fewer than 1,000 prophets, pastors and muslim clerics are expected to do spiritual cleansing for him at the newly constructed Oke Ayoba Government Lodge. The multi -million naira Lodge built by the regime of Dr Kayode Fayemi was commissioned by the Speaker of the House of Representatives,Hon Aminu Tambuwal. Speaking during a television programme at NTA, Ado Ekiti on Tuesday, the Governor-elect , Mr Fayose said the Pastors and Prophets are welcome from all the 16 local government areas of the state.
“I am inviting all our men of God to follow us to Oke Ayobo, Government House on Thursday to do some spiritual cleansing there.
“But let me emphasis that we are only inviting pastors who are divinely called to lead us to Government" House
“They (clerics) would be in front, we shall follow them, our men of God would use the power of prayer to conquer.
