Kayode Ojo is a member of the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti state. The Ikoro-Ekiti-born politician is seeking to succeed Governor Ayodele Fayose in 2018. In this interview with Daniel Adeleye, he predicts the defeat of the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the forthcoming governorship election in the state. Excerpts;
WHY are you contesting the governorship seat in Ekiti State? I am aspiring for the position because I want to help my people and liberate them from the present situation which is far below acceptable standard. Our acronym has been ‘Fountain of Knowledge’. Presently, can we really say that we are still the fountain of knowledg? Even if we are at all, are we translating that knowledge into prosperity and development of the State? So basically, I am vying for that position to right the wrongs of the past and set the pace for the development of Ekiti State.
Your party, the All Progressive Congress (APC), has been labeled as unpopular in the state.
