Kayode Fayemi and wife at polling unit/today.ng
The candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the ongoing governorship election in Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi, has voted at Unit 9 Ward 11 in Isan Ekiti.
His wife, however, could not cast her own ballot as the card reader failed to recognise her PVC, and the former Minister of Mines and Steel has said the wife’s vote is important to him.
Speaking when the card reader failed to recognise his wife’s PVC, after he himself had voted, the governorship candidate said his wife’s vote was one vote he could not afford to joke with.
He, however, said his wife, Mrs. Bisi Fayemi, would come back to vote.
Fayemi also said he believed in the process and that was why he contested and came out to vote.
He said his expectation was that he would win the election and would be declared the winner accordingly, going by his “track record.”
The card reader had also rejected the PVC of PDP’s governorship candidate, Kolapo Olusola on two trials.
