Ahead of the forthcoming gubernatorial election in Ekiti State, members of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has embarked on a road show to campaign against what they called vote -buying and other election malpractices during the election.

The campaign led by the gubernatorial candidate of the party in the state, Dr Wole Oluyide,  said the party resolved to embark on the campaign to work against vote buying and to dislodge the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) and rescue Ekiti from “Egypt” in the June 18 election.

The candidate maintained that the party’s manifesto was ingeniously crafted in such a way that would disentangle the populace from poverty caused by unemployment , economic deprivation, lack of infrastructure and bad governance.

He appealed to the voters to resist attempt by desperate politicians to buy their conscience through vote buying, saying this tactic would fail them in the coming election.

Oluyede spoke  during a rally in Ado Ekiti that was attended by huge crowd of party supporters and admirers across the 16 local government areas of the state.

Addressing the crowd, Oluyede, said the ADC was resolute to dismantle the alleged castle of poverty, unemployment , exclusion and insecurity brought by other parties to Ekiti.

He said: “They said they are bringing thuggery, but God has arrested them for us. They even threatened that we shouldn’t organise this rally, but they failed. Nobody’s blood will be shed in this election by the grace of God.

“Don’t fall for their money, God won’t allow you to eat the food of your enemies. This time, God has reclaimed Ekiti for us. We are not in any way rattled by their threats, because you are behind me.

” Let us go home and campaign house- to -house. Tell the people that the party that will bring joy, peace and love has come. The time for economic prosperity and abundance is coming. Let us be serious with our campaigns, because winning Ekiti from these people is possible.”

Oluyede added; “With the large turn out of our loyalists today, we are making a statement that Ekiti is fixable. The people have laboured and toiled under the present democracy with only poverty, dearth of social amenities and the attendant impoverishment to show for it.

“The ADC, has come as the ready liberator to move our people away from their present Egypt to the Promised Land and restore needed hope for better days to come.

“My deputy, Dr Hidiat Popoola and I shall breast the tape to victory, come June 18, 2022 and Ekiti shall know peace again through quality representation and resourceful governance, which are kernels of human self worth and dignity.
