Ekiti State Governor Kayode Fayemi is up to something else in Ekiti State, which many of you don’t know.
While some of his peers and colleagues have abandoned governance in their states and running and visiting traditional rulers because of ‘tomorrow,’ Governor Fayemi is working hard, not only for him to end his second coming well, but also to ensure that peace and harmony reign in Nigeria.
Governor Fayemi is focused, being a goal setter and getter, he is being methodical and calculative in his strides at ensuring that he ends well.
Honestly, the governor of Ekiti State, Dr John Kayode Fayemi, is the best in Nigeria when it comes to judicious allocation of scarce resources to obtain the optimum benefits for his people. His landmark and historical accomplishments in Ekiti State are not only legendary, but confounding, based on the availability of resources. He has earned a diamond award in infrastructural enhancement, health and social service, agricultural and food expansion, educational development, environmental upgrading, arts and culture, tourism development and rural roads rehabilitation.
His urbane and cosmopolitan outlook and appearance with his solid white set of teeth, blessed with a gap, oozes out assuring positivity on any encounter with him. He is not loud, even with all his achievements, but only strategic about his acts and deeds.
He is undoubtedly the best governor in Nigeria, in terms of testimonial comprehensive development of his state and domestication of private and public peace. He is onto another journey in Ekiti State, which he has been keeping a secret; but quietly working hard to bring it forth. A unique project which will stand Ekiti State out in the comity of states in Nigeria. A project for all. A project that will add value to the longetivity of Ekiti indigenes and Nigerians and alas, the global population. A project of bliss. A project of Health, Tourism and Wellness.
A project that will make Nigeria domesticate substantial foreign exchange. A project that will bring the world to Ekiti. A project of life. A project of soul-enriching. God bless Governor Kayode Fayemi for taking a giant step at planting Ekiti Wellness and Medical Tourism Resort Site; along the tourism zone, without the state bearing the huge financial dictate of the project. Kudos to Dr John Kayode Fayemi, who is not only a collaborative leader, but a philosopher who thinks great movie from a great mind.
Congratulations Ekiti State! Soar, Governor Fayemi, Soar!!! And soar beyond the imagination of us all.
