He said, “I am delighted to have won the party’s primary election, and I am also happy because the delegates voted for me.

“All other aspirants ‎are my friends and colleagues, and I am going to work with them to ensure that our great party emerges winner in the forthcoming gubernatorial election,”

Addressing Ekiti indigenes, Fayemi stated that he was not on a vengeance mission against the government of Governor Fayose but had unfinished business in terms of bringing more development to the state.

He, however, pleaded with them to forgive any of his past policies, which may have offended them while serving as governor of the state.
