After failing to bag any appointment in President Bola Tinubu administration, former Ekiti State governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, is now angling to contest for the Ekiti North Senatorial District in the next election.
Fayemi is moving to replace Senator Cyril Fasuyi who presently represents the senatorial district in the National Assembly.
Both of them are members of the governing All Progressives Congress.
The former Ekiti State governor, who was also Minister of Solid Minerals in President Muhammadu Buhari regime before he resigned to contest for his second term in office as governor, is keeping the senatorial ambition a closely guarded secret.
Impeccable sources told WESTERN POST that he had begun calling meetings of his ‘boys’ and oiling his machinery for the election.
“One of such meetings held about two weeks ago in his country-home in Isan-Ekiti,” one of the sources told the newspaper.
If elected as Senator, his victory may likely herald his return to take full control of Ekiti State politics.
