Former Governor In Southern Nigeria Speaks On Becoming A Member Of APC After Tinubu’s Victory
Former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has stated that he will not join the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
He made the remark on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Tuesday, just days after the 2023 elections were held. Fayose, who opposed his party’s presidential candidate, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP Atiku Abubakar from northern Nigeria, maintained that power should shift south.

“Many people in Nigeria have been confronted with what they have said at different times and they either recant or say something new. I stand here to tell you that I will never be a member of the APC. I am not in politics for what it is anymore. I have been given a fair opportunity to lead Ekiti two times and defeated two incumbents.”
According to him, his support for All Progressives Congress (APC) president-elect Bola Tinubu was based on equity principles, which meant that southern Nigeria should take over power at the federal level.
“I have no apology for my action now and in the future. I have not hidden my respect for Bola Asiwaju,” he added.
According to the former governor, the main opposition PDP was fractured and was never prepared for the 2023 elections. Fayose urged the party to unite and focus on the 2027 elections if they want to take power.
He also warned the country’s leaders to brace themselves, claiming that the events leading up to the 2023 elections, as well as the massive interest shown by young people, demonstrate that it is no longer business as usual.
“Young people did not hide their disdain. They went for the leaders’ neck and took it out, sacked them, and occupied the space. Let me tell you again, this is a warning and further warning for those people coming in and returning that if you mess with the people, they will mess with you in four years’ time,” Fayose said
