Earlier this week, a campaign poster of Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti was put online by the chairman of Ikere local government, Femi Ayodele.
Ayodele was said to have sponsored campaign posters canvassing for Governor Fayemi to contest as a presidential candidate under the platform of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in 2023.
The message which appears on the said poster with APC logo reads: “Support His Excellency Dr. John Kayode Fayemi for President 2023.”
Following this development, the Chairman of Ikere local government, Femi Ayodele has been suspended by the Ekiti state House of Assembly over alleged unauthorized presidential campaign posters for Governor Kayode Fayemi.
He was suspended unanimously by the lawmakers at the Assembly’s plenary presided over by the speaker, Funminiyi Afuye on Friday, August 21.
The motion entitled: “Calling for an investigation into the alleged unsolicited and unauthorized campaign in the media in flagrant disregard to Extant Regulations by Chairman, Ikere Local Government Area, Mr. Femi Ayodele.” was moved by the majority leader of the house Gboyega Aribisogan and seconded by Tajudeen Akingbolu representing Ekiti West constituency 1.
