Fayose Resigns from PDP Ahead of 2026 Ekiti Governorship Election

Otunba Emmanuel Fayose, a governorship aspirant in Ekiti State, resigned from the PDP, citing betrayal and compromise by the party's national leadership ahead of the 2026 election. Fayose's decision, announced by his brother, former Governor Ayodele Fayose, highlighted concerns over the integrity of the party's primary process in Ekiti.
He accused the Acting National Chairman, Ambassador Iliya Damagum, and National Secretary, Senator Samuel Anyanwu, of undermining the party's opposition stance and aligning with the ruling APC. Fayose's resignation underscores internal rifts and distrust within the PDP, potentially impacting the party's unity and electoral prospects in Ekiti State.
