The All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State has urged its supporters to brace for the challenge to reclaim its stolen mandate from Governor Ayodele Fayose.

In a statement on Sunday, the state Publicity Secretary,Taiwo Olatubosun, said the party and the people in general now stand on a superior moral ground to retrieve the stolen mandate and to install a purposeful government led by (ex-Governor Kayode) Fayemi for Ekiti development.

The party stated this in a reaction to the audio tape released by SaharaReporters, an online medium, detailing how Fayose, former Minister of State for Defence, Mr Musiliu Obanikoro; Senator Iyiola Omisore, Minister of Police Affairs, Mr Jelili Adesiyan, and the military allegedly rigged theJune 21 governorship poll in the state.

But the Minister of State for Works, Mr. Dayo Adeyeye, has described the audio clipas a failed attempt to rewrite history.

According to him, no amount of campaign of calumny and blackmail could erase thefact that Ekiti people willingly elected Fayose.

Olatubosun said the APC had been vindicated by its claim that photochromic ballot papers were used to fix the June 21, 2014 election in the state.

He wondered how Fayose, who was facing a criminal trial over alleged stealing of N1.3bn in poultry project, instituted by the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, won all the 16 local governments in that election against a performing incumbent governor.

He added, It was shocking that one of the participants spoke of how he must deliver on the assignment given to him by the President. The fellow said I am not for a tea party but to deliver on the presidents assignment.

It was shocking hearing the voice of a Major General in the Army, begging Mr Governor and pledging loyalty to deliver on the assignment.
