A Peoples Democratic Party(PDP)chieftain in Ekti State, Funmi Ogun, has actually rejected her nomination as celebration’s deputy governorship prospect.

Ogun was Commissioner for Works during ex-Governor Ayo Fayose’s second term of office.

Her February 24, 2022 letter, entitled “Re: My Nomination as Deputy Governorship candidate”, was dealt with to the National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu.

Ogun informed Ayu that she was aware Ekiti stakeholders sent her name for the June 18 gubernatorial election.

“Notwithstanding their good intents, I officially write to decline the election for personal reasons.

“However, I value the uncommon recognition and I guarantee the party that no effort will be spared at ensuring our victory at the election,”she noted.

NAN quoted the political leader saying the letter was not indicated to slight anybody.

She grumbled that after the endorsement and election to the PDP national management, the latter failed to act.

Ogun stated she composed the memo so as not to be on a collision course with party heads.

“I have actually composed this letter while awaiting the reaction of our leader, Ayo Fayose and the national leaders. This doesn’t suggest any problem in Ekiti State PDP”, the chieftain assured.
