Earlier, a faction of the party in Ekiti state led by Tony Adeniyi, a former senator who represented Ekiti-south senatorial district had suspended the governor of the state for what was described as “his numerous anti-party activities, especially his role in the recently concluded governorship election in Edo State which is contrary to the provisions of the party’s constitution.”
Alongside the governor, a special adviser to President Buhari on political matters, Babafemi Ojudu; a former member of the house of representatives, Omotunde Ojo, and nine other party members, were suspended for “contravening” the party’s directive.
The faction accused Fayemi of hosting bigwigs of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) five days to the Edo election in Ekiti government house, where they allegedly perfected a coup against the APC in Edo State.
The faction also alleged that Fayemi played a prominent role in the emergence of Seyi Makinde as governor of Oyo to the detriment of Bayo Adelabu, the APC candidate.
