Fayose Regains Grip as Loyalist Emerges Ekiti PDP Chairman
An ally of former Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose, has emerged as the new chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the state.
The emergence of the new party chairman is widely seen as a consolidation of Fayose’s influence within the Ekiti chapter of the party following internal alignments among stakeholders.
Party sources said the development followed consultations and political negotiations among key figures in the PDP aimed at stabilising the party structure in the state.
Political observers believe the outcome could shape the party’s strategy and internal power dynamics as members begin to reposition ahead of future electoral contests.
The leadership change is also expected to play a crucial role in strengthening the party’s organisation and mobilisation efforts across Ekiti State.
Analysts note that control of state party structures remains a critical factor in Nigeria’s political landscape, particularly within the Peoples Democratic Party as it navigates ongoing internal challenges nationwide.
