All Progressive Congress( APC) vice presidential candidate, Senator Kashim Shettima, has praised a former governor of Ekiti State and chieftain of the opposition People’s Democratic Party( PDP), Ayodele Fayose, for supporting Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s presidential shot.
Fayose has receded himself from the PDP presidential juggernauts over his support for the agitations of the party’s G- 5 governors led by his friend and Rivers State governor, Nyesom Wike.
It would also be recalled that Fayose had some months ago openly declared that he’d only support a presidential candidate of Southern origin in order for power to shift to the South.

Only many days agone , seven of Fayose’s abettors and protégés, who are fighting for civil legislative seats of Ekiti State in the forthcoming 2023 general choices, were suspended by the public leadership of the PDP over alleged anti-party conditioning.
But, with Shettima’s disclosure, Fayose might have made up his mind on jilting the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, for APC’s Tinubu.
Shettima made the commendation and disclosure about Fayose’s support via his Twitter handle after visiting the former Ekiti State governor.
Tinubu’s handling mate wrote “ I paid my family, former Governor of Ekiti State,H.E. Ayodele Peter Fayose a visit.
“ The great Oshko welcomed us with warmth and rare fellowship. Thank you for your support and God bless you for hosting me and my platoon. ”
