SAN FRANCISCO, July 22, (THEWILL) – The Ekiti State governor-elect, Mr. Peter Ayodele Fayose, Tuesday declared that the era of imposition of candidates was gone forever in the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), promising to provide a level playing field and not induce the forthcoming general election in favour of anybody.

Fayose, who stated this during a meeting with aspirants to legislative and local government elective positions in Ado Ekiti, the state capital, said in a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Idowu Adelusi, that the party will screen each aspirant before being allowed to participate in the election.

He enjoined the aspirants not to bribe any party leader, saying such will not help them in any way.

Fayose also warned that the party will not hesitate to sanction any erring member who remain in the party to destroy it, assuring that his government will ensure that all members of the party benefit before the expiration of his tenure.

He stated ‎further that his administration will provide enabling environment for the people to promote themselves and the party to achieve stability and success.

In his remarks, the state chairman of the party, Mr. Makanjuola Ogundipe, expressed gratitude to President Goodluck Jonathan and the party’s national chairman, Alhaji Adamu Muazu, for supporting the party to win in the last election, assuring that Ekiti PDP would soon become a model in terms of discipline and good governance.

Also speaking at the meeting, a former Education Minister, Professor Tunde Adeniran, rallied support of the Ekiti people for the governor-elect so as to perform much more better than the last outgoing administration.

Adeniran pledged his support to the party’s position, saying there should be no room for imposition of candidates again in the PDP.
