Senator representing Ondo Central, Ayo Akinyelure, on Sunday, visited former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose in his Lagos residence to pledge support for Dr Eddy Olafeso, who is being promoted as the Peoples Democratic Party National Vice Chairman (South-West) by the former governor of Ekiti State.

Akinyelure support for Fayose’s group is coming after Senator Nicholas Tofowomo, representing Ondo South District at the National Assembly led a delegation of prominent members of the party to pay a solidarity visit to Fayose.

Starnews Nigeria reports that as power tussle within the PDP continues in the South-West and the Zonal Congress is fast approaching, the Oyo State Governor seems to be losing political weight to Fayose as the former Ekiti Governor is adding political bigwigs and elected politicians to his camp every week.
