Fayose Jubilates Over Victory At The Supreme Court

Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State, yesterday led a victory dance to celebrate  the judgment of the Supreme Court which  revalidated his election during the June 21 governorship election in the state.

Fayose personally led the procession made up of the crowd awaiting his return from Abuja where the judgment was delivered.

Fayose carried a placard bearing the inscription: “God, I thank you, Ekiti people, I thank you for your steadfastness,” leading the carnival-like procession through busy routes such as Fajuyi-Okesha-Okeyinmi-Oba’s market, Old Garage, Ijigbo-Mugbagba and Ajilosun streets among others.

Addressing the crowd, Fayose said he was delighted that all legal tussles weaved around his mandate as governor had died and laid to rest by the Supreme Court.

He expressed gratitude to the  judges for keeping sacred, the mandate freely given to him by Ekiti people.

Fayose called on those still nursing the ambition of getting him out of office at all cost, and by all means to have a re-think, as unfolding events had proved that it was God that put him in position of leadership.

During the period the procession lasted, there was traffic gridlock on major streets of Ado-Ekiti as every available space was occupied by the jubilant residents, thereby preventing free flow of human and vehicular traffic.

Among those who accompanied the governor on the road show were a former Ekiti State deputy governor and senator-elect, Mrs. Abiodun Olujimi; wife of former Lagos governor and Senator-Elect, Mrs Fatimah Raji-Rasaki, Senator Bode Ola and all the six newly elected House of Representatives members as well as all the 25 newly elected House of Assembly members.

Ado Ekiti, the state capital, also witnessed an unprecedented crowd immediately the news was relayed to the public as the people trooped out in their thousands to celebrate the victory of Governor Fayose at the apex court.
