Watch How Bisi Kolawole, Fayose’s Anointed Candidate Emerged As The Ekiti PDP Governorship Candidate
Bisi Kolawole has emerged as the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate in the June 18 governorship election in Ekiti state.
Kolawole, a former chairman of the PDP in Ekiti, edged out Segun Oni, an ex-governor, and Kolapo Olusola, a former deputy governor of the state, at the primary election that took place in Ado-Ekiti on Wednesday.
Kolawole had resigned his position as Ekiti PDP chairman to contest the governorship election. He was the preferred aspirant of Fayose, former governor of the state.
Kolawole is a former lawmaker representing Efon constituency in the state house of assembly. He also served as commissioner of environment between 2015 and 2018.
While endorsing Kolawole for the governorship election, Fayose had described him as a bridge-builder who will usher in a better future for Ekiti and the PDP.
Biodun Olujimi, the senator representing Ekiti south, had pulled out of the race earlier in the day, accusing the party of disenfranchising her.
The delegates first converged at the Pastoral Centre in Ado-Ekiti to get accredited, after which they moved to Great Eagle Hall for the voting exercise.
Governor Emmanuel Udom of Akwa Ibom state chaired the Ekiti primary election committee.

PDP SHOULD TRY AND UNITE TO ELIMINATE ALL COW GOVERNMENT
Those who scored no vote don't have atleast one family member or one friend who voted for them ! No friend, no family member, not even one!
Please, segun Oni was never a former governor in ekiti. By virtue of the appeal court judgement that invalidated his election n gave d valid votes cast in favour of Kayode Fayemi. (Fayemi first term)" Stop misleading 🇳🇬 AIT.

Oga he is a formal Governor, he was sworn in as Governor and yes his Governorship was later nullified by the S.Court but for the fact that he was sworn in automatically makes him a formal Governor, even if he spent 24hrs in office he is a formal Governor.! (Note) I'm not his fan or supporter but the truth has to be told
