Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti state has declared that God directed him to support his Deputy, Kolapo Olusola-Eleka, to succeed him as Governor of the state.

Governor Fayose made this known at a PDP rally on Monday, January 29, in Ado Ekiti.

Fayose said: �Olusola never said he wanted to be deputy governor, but God instructed me to pick him. I said we will go together after our tenure, but God said I should allow him to stay; that what I said was my own opinion.”

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that former minister of state for works, Dayo Adeyeye, a serving senator, Mrs. Biodun Olujimi, and Nigeria’s former envoy in Canada, Dare Bejide, had indicated interest in the PDP’s ticket for the July 14 governorship poll.

The trio, along with a former Fayose aide and justice commissioner, Owoseeni Ajayi, had jointly rejected the adoption of Olusola as the PDP’s sole candidate and described the step as �pedestrian and undemocratic”.

But Fayose however said that he was not disturbed by the negative utterances hurled at him by the anti-Olusola aspirants.

�The PDP has taken a position which we think is in the best interest of the state; we shall not be distracted by those opposed to this step,” he said. He expressed confidence that the PDP would win the July 14 election �by God’s grace”.
