Ekiti continuity agenda will pave the way for capacity building

The founder of Akosile Vanguard and the Education Scribe of Efon Local Government, Chief Akosile Olubunmi has said that continuity agenda of Gov. Ayodele Fayose will pave the way for more capacity building and not competency test.

He made the statement in Efon on Monday during the empowerment in the local government organised by Akosile Vanguard in support of Professor Kolapo Olusola Eleka.

He said he was doing this to show his appreciation for the appointment given to him and to support the continuity agenda of Gov. Fayose.

He appealed to teachers in the local government not to derail in their support for Gov. Fayose and come out on July 14 to vote in Prof. Kolapo Olusola as the governor of the state.

He said teachers should have it in mind that it was better to be owed than to be sacked.

In his remarks, the PDP Chairman in the local government appealed to party members to remain focused and ensure they protect their voter's cards.

The President of Positive Minds Club, Mr. Oladapo Ojo and the state Youth Leader of the League of Friends, Mr. Sunday Agbetuyi appealed to all the teachers to continue giving support of the government, saying the support of continuity was what will guarantee job security without competency test.

In attendance were party leaders, PMC leaders and League of Friends.
