The Chairman of the Nigeria Governors’ Forum and governor of Zamfara State. Abdulaziz Yari Abubakar, on behalf of the governors of the 36 states of the Federation has congratulated Dr John Kayode Fayemi on his election as governor of Ekiti State once again.
In a statement by Abdulrazaque Barkindo, Head, Media and Public Affairs, Governor Abubakar said that since the people of Ekiti have spoken, the governor-elect, who once showed humility and courage and congratulated the out-going governor four years ago should this time round also be magnanimous in victory by expressing his fervent desire to govern Ekiti for the benefit of all.
The NGF Chairman, while wishing the out-going governor of Ekiti State Mr. Peter Ayodele Fayose, best wishes in his future endeavor, stated that the NGF would miss his invaluable contributions at its meetings.
He called on Fayemi to join hands with the other governors in the country to strengthen the NGF and add value to their deliberations at their monthly meetings and added that members of the Forum are overjoyed with high expectations to have him return from the Federal Executive Council to an NGF that is now stronger and more united years of his second tenure.
