Fayemi visits Bamidele in London

Ekiti State Governor-elect, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, has visited the Director-General of his Campaign Council, Mr. Opeyemi Bamidele in London, United Kingdom.


Bamidele was shot on June 1 by a trigger-happy policeman at the premises of the All Progress Congress (APC) during a welcome rally organised for Fayemi after stepping down from the Federal Executive Council  (FEC) as Minister of Mines and Steel Development.

The former House of Representatives member was rushed to the Ekiti State University Teaching Hospital where he was operated upon and stabilised before being flown abroad.

Bamidele, who has been discharged from the hospital is still in London as an outpatient.

In a statement last night by his media aide, Ahmed Salami, Fayemi, who left Ado-Ekiti for Lagos immediately after inaugurating his Transition Committee arrived in London.


The statement said Fayemi spent quality time with Bamidele, his wife, Yemisi  and other members of the family, Mr. Abiodun Bamidele and Mrs. Folasade Bamidele.

Fayemi and Bamidele also reviewed issues regarding the  July 14 governorship election.

The reunion sparked up celebration of victory and praise and worship  sessions from the two eminent Ekiti leaders.
