Ekiti All Progressive Congress (APC) showed their displeasure in Gover­nor Ayodele Fayose for adopting his Deputy, Prof Kolapo Olusola, as the pre­ferred candidate of the Peoples’ Democratic Party, PDP without conducting a primary election.

APC assured its aspirants of free, fair and transparent primary where the best and pre­ferred candidate that will fly the flag of APC in the 2018 governorship elec­tion will emerge.

The state Chairman of the party, Mr Jide Awe, said that the choice of Olu­sola by Governor Fayose has made the job easier for APC to send the PDP packing in 2018 and to effect change and create development.

Awe, who was repre­sented by the Vice-Chair­man, Mrs Kemi Olaleye, made the remarks while receiving the 25th aspi­rants of the party, Ajayi Olatunji Olowo, who came to submit a letter of intent for the 2018 gubernato­rial race at the party Sec­retariat.

“We in APC parades quality aspirants who can defeat the best Fayose can offer. The least among our numerous aspirants can beat Olusola whom Fayose is forcing down on his par­ty’s throat and that is why we will send him packing in 2018.

“We in APC don’t de­ceive the people by adopt­ing a system that ensures that it is only his choice that emerges. We assure all our aspirants of free, fair and transparent primaries.
