The Senate Leader, Senator Opeyemi Bamidele, has said that members of Ekiti State Caucus in the National Assembly will join hands with other progressive-minded people to support Governor Biodun Oyebanji for a second term in office.
Bamidele, who represents Ekiti Central Senatorial District, said that their support for Oyebanji was based on his excellent performance and exemplary leadership quality.
The Senate Leader, accompanied by Oyebanji, spoke at Igede Ekiti on Friday during an inspection of some of his constituency projects across Ekiti Central Senatorial district where he assured the people that “all the market, solar power, roads and hospital projects would be replicated across the six local government areas on the district.”
He said that the governor had continued to collaborate with members of the National Assembly and get them actively involved in his development agenda.
Bamidele said, “We have a governor today who will sit down with us and say this is what our people need, if you want to do your constituency project, please, work on this list.
I know that market development was part of what the governor discussed with us, the transformer was part of it, the solar street light was part of it and by the grace of God every member of the National Assembly would pick from the list given to us by the governor because if we do not do what the people want at where they want it, it will be useless.
“Your Excellency, we are proud of you and I know that by the grace of God like everyone is saying, anybody that thinks there is a vacancy in 2026 is only deceiving himself, and I am begging you, don’t let anybody deceive our people.
“You sent nine of us to Abuja, three senators and six House of Representative members and at the appropriate time, the nine of us will do our advert jointly signed endorsing Governor Oyebanji as our consensus candidate in all the dailies,” the Senator stated.
The next governorship election where Oyebanji will seek reelection will hold in 2026.
Oyebanji, in his response, hailed the commitment of the Senator Leader and his colleagues in the National Assembly to Ekiti development, adding that their exemplary performance underscored the importance of electing people of proven integrity and capacity as representatives in government.
