The governor-elect of Ekiti State, Mr. Ayo Fayose, has
distributed no fewer than 14,500 branded 5kg bags of
rice to Muslims across the state.

Fayose, who distributed some of the rice at Ado Ekiti Central Mosque
and Ansarudeen Central Mosque, said the gesture was in
the spirit of Ramadan.

The Deputy governor-elect, Dr. Olusola Eleka, who spoke
on behalf of Fayose, said the bags of rice would be
distributed simultaneously across the 16 local
government areas in the state.
Elega said, "You know the Governor-elect is a man of the
people and he so much has the love of the people at
heart.
"He is doing this to demonstrate his love for the people
and to identify with them especially during this season of
Ramadan".

Eleka, who appreciated the people for their massive vote
for Mr. Fayose, assured that the incoming government
would deliver on the promises made during the
campaign.

The deputy-governor elect urged Muslims in the state to
use the opportunity of the holy month of Ramadan to
pray for the country and Ekiti state.
According to him, the peace being enjoyed in the state is
as a result of the prayers of adherents of both religions.

"The governor-elect appreciates your prayers for him,
this state and the country at large and I urge you not to
relent especially now that a new government is on the
way", he said.

Eleka also pleaded for harmonious relationship among all
religious groups saying without peace, no useful
development could take place.

President, Ekiti State League of Imams and Alfas, Alhaji
Jamiu Kewulere, who received the commodities, thanked
Mr. Fayose for the gesture.

He assured that Muslims in the state would not relent in
their prayers for the state.
