2023: Fayose Resigns From PDP Zoning Committee Over Presidential Ambition
Former Governor of Ekiti state, Ayodele Fayose, has resigned from the Peoples Democratic Party’s zoning committee over his presidential ambition.
Fayose made this known in a letter dated April 5th, 2022, and addressed to the Chairman PDP zoning committee, Benue State Governor, Samuel Ortom.
The statement reads in part, “Having hinted during our last meeting at my intention to run for the office of the President in the coming primary election and by God’s grace; the general election. it will not be morally right to continue to participate in the zoning debate being an aspirant myself.
”Therefore, my state has nominated the bearer of this letter Dr Gbenga Faseluko to replace me,” he added.
Fayose commended the members of zoning committee on how they deliberated on important issues and expressed hope that the outcome will bring understanding, peace and stability to the party and the country at large.
