Eleka Welcomes Over 200 APC Members to PDP, Says APC Is Cancerous


It was a carnival like event today in Igede Ekiti, Irepodun/Ifelodun Local Government area of Ekiti state as over 200 APC members defected to the People's Democratic party, PDP.

The decampees, who all adorned themselves with Aso-Ebi said their decision to join the ruling party in Ekiti was borne out of the outstanding performances and leadership qualities of governor Ayodele Fayose.

Speaking on behalf of the decampees, Mrs Alade said despite the huge debt their party, APC bedeviled Ekiti with, Ekiti under Fayose is still hundred percentage better off than Ekiti under Fayemi.

Mrs Alade said continuity is no doubt needed to guarantee sustainability of rapid multifaceted developments, and successes being witness in the state, most especially in Education sector, where the state is performing brilliantly, security provision, infrastructure development etc

Welcoming the decampees to the People's Democratic Party, the Deputy Governor Professor Kolapo Olusola Eleka said All Progressive Congress (APC) is cancerous, adding that it is a party that steals, kills and destroys, warning those who are still in APC to come out of the perpetual darkness they are.

The deputy governor who received the defectors from All progressive Congress to the people Democratic party assured them of fair treatment. Eleka assured them that PDP is the party of equal right, "immediately you become member you have same rights as those are have been here before you," he assured.

He said he was happy with the new members that they have taken a bold step to leave the darkness for light.

"APC is cancerous, it is a party that steals, kills and destroy. I congratulate you today that you have seen the light. APC darkness and PDP is light, darkness can never overcome light.

"When they were ruling this state, you all know how they ruin our economy, how they plunged us into monumental debt; how they threatened to sack our teachers, and they are still downsizing in the some of the states they are controlling," Eleka said

The deputy governor thereafter presented cash gift to the newest members of the PDP and charged them to keep winning more souls for the party.
