Ekiti Elders’ Forum, Women’s Wing, has urged the gubernatorial candidate of Action Democratic Party, (ADP) in 2022 election, Mrs Kemi Elebute-Halle to join the group to promote the development of the state.
PMParrot reports that the President of the group, Mrs Ogunsakin stated this when she paid a courtesy visit to the residence of the ADP chieftain in Ado-Ekiti.
Ogunsakin said the major purpose of the visit was to urge her to identify with the women’s wing so as to benefit from her wealth of experience in women empowerment and development globally.
She explained that the forum was not a political gathering but it was formed by women towards promoting the progress and development of Ekiti.
Ogunsakin added that the forum comprises women from different parties such as PDP, APC, SDP as well as ADP, and they all work for the common goal of making the state better.
“Ekiti Elders’ Forum, Women Wing is not a political party, it is a group established by women to join the state governor to promote the development of the state.
“The forum comprises women of different political beliefs, academic and social cultural background with experience in various fields.
“We want you to join our forum and make positive impacts as well as support the good works of the current administration of governor Biodun Oyebanji,” Ogunsakin said.
Responding, the Action Democratic Party leader, Mrs Kemi Elebute-Halle, commended the visit of the leaders and members of the forum to her residence.
Elebute-Halle said she appreciated the demonstration of love shown to her by her mothers and leaders in the group.
The ADP chieftain urged women to collaborate with the forum to further support the good works of the Biodun Oyebanji-led administration in the state.
“I was short of words when I saw my mothers come into my home, I will tell you that it’s an overwhelming experience and I will not take it for granted.
“I wish I had known members of this forum before election, maybe it would have been a landslide victory for me. But I still appreciate God because He is unquestionable.
“For us to be able to make success, we must collaborate, especially we women. We must collaborate with the present administration of governor Biodun Oyebanji that the Lord has given us.
“If you see his works in these few months that he assumed office, you will see that he is a seasoned Ekiti person, a well-trained humble man and a service-driven governor.
“All we are praying for, as all the women have prayed for him is success during his tenure and that God should see him through the journey with wisdom and protection to be able to fulfill his mandate to Ekiti people,” she said.
Elebute-Halle assured them of her support for the group and for the current administration in the state to promote the development of the state.
