In a five-paragraph letter by the union dated May 11, 2018 and signed by the State Chairman, Comrade Samuel Olusegun Olugbesan, and the Secretary, Comrade Olugbenga Olasupo Ajibade, the teachers stated, “we could not hide our joy on hearing the good news of the victory of your loyal deputy at the primary poll which now makes him the governorship candidate of your party.”
The teachers stated further, “while there is a limit to which we as trade unionists/ public servants could involve ourselves in party politics, we would not, however, be deterred by any fear to express our happiness, delight and satisfaction over the outcome of the PDP’s peaceful primary poll.
“Your Excellency, the respect, recognition and honour you have always accorded our union leadership and the generality of Teachers in Ekiti State, and as well, the priority is given to education has made you first among equals in the minds of Ekiti teachers. “
The teachers, therefore, wish Professor Olusola success on July 14, 2018 governorship election.
