EKITI GUBER RACE : ALUKO DECLARES INTEREST
All stage is set for the former deputy governor of Ekiti state, Surveyor Abiodun Aluko, who will tomorrow declare his intentions to contest for this year governorship election in the state.
Aluko who hails from Ikere Ekiti is a leading governorship aspirant under the platform of the Mega Party of Nigeria (MPN) for the exhalted seat.
It would be recalled that there are series of agitation by the people of the state clamouring for a governor from the Southern part of the state where Surveyor Aluko happens to hails from.
Since the creation of Ekiti state, no one from the Southern zone has been made governor of the state.
However, Aluko and the present deputy governor of the state, Professor Eleka whom Governor Ayodele Fayose has picked on the ruling PDP, are from Ikere Ekiti, a major part of the Ekiti Southern Zone.
Aluko had wanted to contest under the PDP being a major stakeholder in the party but he decided to join the newly formed Mega Party of Nigeria when it became obvious that Governor Ayodele Fayose wouldn’t allow him and his Co aspirants to run under the party.
Sur. Aluko speaking briefly on the declaration which takes place at the Mega Party secretariat in Ado Ekiti tomorrow, Aluko informed that he is in the race to ensure that the people of the state experience good governance which he said they have been agitating and lack.
The former Deputy Governor of Ekiti state added that ekiti state is a land full of quality,valuable and capable personalities with Rich resouces abound in the state to turn the Fortune of the people around for good. Promising quality governance when elected as governor of the state.
