The Director-General of the Kayode Fayemi campaign council, Opeyemi Bamidele, has called on the public to disregard the rumour making the rounds that he had died in the London Hospital.
Bamidele has been in the hospital receiving medical care for the past six weeks. The former lawmaker said the rumour was targeted at botching the ecstasy of victory recorded by the All Progressives Congress APC Governorship candidate in the election held on 14th July, Doctor Kayode Fayemi and turn Ekiti into a battleground.
Reports show that Bamidele sustained gunshot wounds caused by mishandling of firearm by a policeman during a rally organized for Fayemi on June 1, 2018.
A statement in Ado Ekiti yesterday by his media aide, Ahmed Salami, branded the rumour as an evil intention of the wicked.
The statement added he spoke as a DG of the victorious campaign outfit for over 10 minutes in an audio clip I sent during the mega rally attended by President Muhammadu Buhari, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, Adams Oshiomhole, governors and other party leaders in Ado Ekiti.
He said that he is convalescing fast and with the prayers of all Nigerians, adding that he shall be discharged soon to reunite his political family and admirers in Ekiti to prepare grounds for Fayemi assumption of office on October 16, 2018.
