Former Ekiti State Governor, Kayode Fayemi, has said he helped president Bola Tinubu become president in the 2023 general elections.
Fayemi made this known during an interview on State Affairs, a podcast hosted by Edmund Obilo.
He reflected on the dramatic outcome of the 2023 presidential election, describing the rise of former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, as a political phenomenon that disrupted Nigeria’s traditional power calculations.
He opened up on the deepening crisis inside the All Progressives Congress, APC,
admitting that the party he helped build has drifted away from its founding ideals.
According to him, Nigeria cannot survive on a winner-takes-all political culture that excludes millions from governance.
He called for inclusive politics, transparent primary elections and the restructuring of the Nigerian federation.
“I helped Tinubu to Become President, but the APC has Lost its Bearing, and Peter Obi is a Phenomenon,” he said.
