Ekiti State Governor-elect, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, has paid a get-well
visit to 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 State
University Teaching Hospital where he was operated upon and stabilised
before being flown abroad to recuperate.
Bamidele who has been discharged from the hospital is still in London as an outpatient.
In a statement on Thursday night by his media aide, Ahmed Salami,
Fayemi who left Ado-Ekiti for Lagos immediately after inaugurating his
Transition Committee arrived London earlier in the day to pay Bamidele a
morale-boosting visit.
The statement said Fayemi spent quality time with Bamidele, his
wife, Mrs. Yemisi Bamidele, and other members of the family, Mr. Abiodun
Bamidele and Mrs. Folasade Bamidele.
Fayemi and Bamidele also reviewed issues regarding the fiercely contested July 14 governorship election.
The reunion sparked up celebration of victory and praise and worship sessions from the two eminent Ekiti leaders.
