The first female gubernatorial Candidate in the just concluded election in Ekiti State on the platform of the Action Democratic Party, ADP, Erelu Josephine Elebute-Halle, said her appearance at the inauguration of Mr. Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji as Governor of Ekiti State, and a member of the All Progressives Congress, APC, was informed by the human spirit to celebrate with people who are celebrating as it is also a divine instruction when you see people happy, you celebrate with them, if you see people sad, as human being, you are also expected to feel same with them.

“I feel that God has made him emerge as the Governor of Ekiti State, and beyond bitterness, I feel that it is important to give him all the support that he needs”.

“Elebute maintained that the position of Governor is a service to humanity. It’s a service to the people of Ekiti State. It is not supposed to be taking personal. So, I decided that, okay since he has invited me, I feel that it is an honour and in recognition of what one has done well in the society because it’s not everybody also that can called to attend such an event.”

She remarked that she felt honour by his invitation as one of the stakeholders in the State. Hence, she should honour him also by felicitating with him.

The former governorship candidate noted that the expectations of the people of the State are very high. “They expect him to perform very well and this question has been asked before, and I said am sure that the Governor would have heard his laid down agenda for the people of the State for the development of Ekiti people. My prayer is that God Almighty would give him the wisdom to be able to execute whatever plan that he has for Ekiti people”. 

According to her, everything the Ekiti people want now is to move forward, adding that they are looking forward for people who will have the genuine interest of the people at heart, who will feel concerned and feel pained by whatever the people are going through.

Erelu Elebute-Halle pointed out that she saw a good man in the new governor, who she also described being very humble. However, she admonished that People want to see him perform and change the face of Ekiti and give Ekiti State a face lift, so that, after his four years, the people will be able to point to his achievements one by one without having to lie about it or anything.

She advised the new Governor to feel the pause of the people to know what they really need and knowing what the people really need right now so that one after the other, he will be able to attend to them.
