The Ekiti state governor, Ayo Fayose, has reacted to reports quoting him as saying he would dump the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the All Progressives Congress (APC).

His spokesman, Lere Olayinka, said the governor did not and will never make such statement.

A press release he signed on Saturday reads: “Kindly disregard statement being circulated by of the APC in Ekiti State that Governor Ayodele Fayose said “If defecting to APC will solve Ekiti problems, he will APC and nobody can stop him.”

“The statement was part of the many lies being circulated by the Ekiti APC and its unsellable governorship candidate, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, obviously to suppress reports of his rejection by Ekiti people.

“Even when APC was still basking in the euphoria of its electoral success of 2015, Governor Fayose made it abundantly clear then that he will never have anything to do with the party, not to talk about now that the party is nearing its political grave.

“As we approach the July 14 governorship election, it is expected that several lies will be told by the APC and its sinking candidate to confuse the unsuspecting of the public.

“Therefore, of the public are urged to disregard any statement not attributed to me or the Chief Press Secretary to the governor, Idowu Adelusi.

“Most importantly, Governor Fayose’s comments on issues (both national and State) are always on his Twitter Handle @GovAyoFayose.

“Any statement credited to Governor Fayose and cannot be found either on his Twitter Handle or my Facebook Timelines and Twitter Handle should be DISREGARDED.”

They should leave Fayose alone o, not after blasting APC and you expect him to decamp.. Who is even saying that

fayose decamp to APC of all parties... what a joke! even a 2 year old knows this is #fakenews

FAYOSE must clear himself before justice BANJOKO of federal high court for criminal breach of trust and corruption, after his tenure as governor before thinking of ing the progressive and honest party.

Never trust any Nigerian Politicians, they only have permanent interest and lacks ideology. Trust them at your own peril

What is Progressive and Honest about APC? Even my poo is more progressive than APC, stop that nonsense. You can restrict it to the North and not to sell them dummy thinking to the whole Country on social media.

Why would any reasonable person want to associate with that Association of Past Criminals group?

Its actually not possible.

Fayose will soon be a jail candidate. Apc dont need him

APC trying to paint Fayose as a coward

They must have offered to tone down their witch hunting if he hands over Ekiti to them on a platter of gold

But the Fayose that I know is a brave man and is not willing to be anyone's lapdog

Experience is the best teacher I guess

Nigeria belongs to us ALL

Buhari through his mal-istrations is about to make Fayose the most revered politician in not only South West but in Nigeria

Then if care is not taken, it's international baby
