“I have known Bisi Kolawole for more that 50 years now. I can attest to his character. I can tell you for free that he is a man of enormous integrity, dignity and honour.
“The Kolawole dynasty in Efon Alaaye is one that has built reputation for itself over the years. Bisi will build on that by putting Ekiti on the desired pedestal in Nigeria.
“The PDP in Ekiti State has made a brilliant decision in electing this man of honour at the primary election, we want to urge Ekiti to vote him at the general election. When they do, he will not disappoint them.
“Bisi knows the value of quality education, he knows the importance of quality health, he’s urbane, he knows that industries can only spring up in a secured environment, Ekiti can be guaranteed all these if they vote for him.
“Having ruminated on what Ekiti stands to benefit if you are given the opportunity to paddle the canoe, we your classmates of 70/74 set of Doherty Memorial Grammar School, Ijero, your Alma Matter deemed it a duty to present you these campaign materials,” Ayegbusi said.
