The All Progressives Congress (APC) on Thursday said that incumbent Gov. Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti state has emerged its lone candidate for the June 21 governorship poll in Ekiti State.
The interim Chairman of APC in the State, Chief Jide Awe at a news conference said that though APC had regard and respect for the Constitution and Electoral Act, the party's laws were internal that must also be respected.
"All parties are permitted to operate, based on their internal mode of doing things, which is otherwise known as internal democracy."
He said that every political party knew who was the best person to fly its flag in any election, adding that the case of APC, on the forthcoming governorship election could not be an exception.
On the issue of illegal pasting of posters as well as erection of campaign billboards across the State, Awe said most of the candidates, including Gov. Kayode Fayemi, did not know who were behind such act.
"It is unfortunate that people can continue to do this even though the governor does not know anything about it. There is no how the governor can choose to ignore INEC orders," he said.
