Tope Aluko and Ayodele Fayose during the press briefing on reconciliation
National Publicity secretary of the People's Democratic Party, Tope
Aluko who had a fall out with the Governor of Ekiti state, Ayodele
Fayose have reconciled.
Tope Aluko earlier this year took to Channels TV to expose the rigging exercises perpetrated by Fayose during the 2014 gubernatorial election in the state which ushered him into power.
According to Aluko who was before then a close ally of the
controversial governor, Fayose of Ekiti rigged his way into power in
Ekiti state with the involvement of former President Goodluck Ebele
Jonathan who released slush funds from the Office of the National
Security Adviser as well as reportedly authorised security operatives to
assist in arresting and intimidating his political opponents on
election day in the state.
This has come as a shock to their followers. In a press briefing in Ekiti state after both parties called truce, Fayose said: "If
i leave him to the whole world, who will be there for him? Nobody. I am
his (Aluko) father, I am his brother. Whatever the past has held for
all of us, I am still his father"
Aluko while taking a question from a journalist claims there is no condition whatsoever for their reconciliation.
Fayose and Aluko have a long history together but the duo
reportedly fell apart following Fayose's failure to make him his Chief
of Staff in Ekiti.
