Former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, on Tuesday appealed to all the aggrieved members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state to drop the hatchet and work together in the overall interest of the party.

Fayose, who apologized to all the aggrieved PDP members Ekiti, said the party must be repositioned ahead of future elections in the state.

He spoke at his country home in Afao-Ekiti while addressing party members across the 16 local government areas and 177 wards in the state.

The former governor said: “We are on a mission to repositioning the party because truly we need a new attitude as members of this party. We must tell ourselves the truth that there is nothing to share in failure and we must join hands to achieve something tangible.

” I know some persons are aggrieved and I know we are humans. I apologize to all those that I have offended; let us come together in unity for this our party not to die in this state. That is my priority as a leader.

“I am doing this after one year I left office just to allow the present All Progressives Congress (APC) to display what they have for the people and you can all see for yourselves. I am not here for my selfish interest but just to ensure this party does not fail.”

Fayose, who used the meeting to officially congratulate Senator Biodun Olujimi on her recent emergence as the lawmaker representing Ekiti South senatorial district, noted that she remains the leader of the party in the state.

He added: “Everybody should come back to the party. I am open to reconciliation. If Senator Biodun Olujimi calls you for a meeting tomorrow, go there and listen to her. All of us are leaders, don’t let us factionalize this party. I am congratulating her (Senator Olujimi) and I don’t have any issue with her and I am sorry for what happened in the past.”
