The APC candidate, also a former governor of Ekiti, said the hostile environment in the state led to the exit or collapse of many businesses.
He solicited the votes of the electorate in the July 14 governorship election to enable him revive the economy for the desired development in Ekiti.
“I will start by resuscitating the State Traffic Management Agency, Fire Service, Peace Corps and the Youths in Commercial Agriculture Development scheme.
“My government will create a conducive atmosphere for private businesses to thrive, thereby boosting job creation for the teeming youths of the state,” he promised.

The Public Relations Officer, (PRO) of APC in Ward 8, Odo-Ayedun, Mr Sanni Bamisaye, assured Fayemi that not only the ward, but the entire local government would vote massively for the party in the election.
