In what would have been his second coming, Senator Ayo Arise has withdrawn from the Ekiti North District’s APC Senatorial primary.
The one time Senator was running under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) to represent the people of Ekiti North at the Senate.
Arise alleged that the governor-elect, Kayode Fayemi may have influenced the process to favor anointed candidates, according to Channels TV.
He wondered why and condemned the sudden change of mode of the contest from direct to indirect primaries.
Mr. Arise may have withdrawn from the senatorial race in order no to suffer another humiliation as he experienced in the APC primary conducted in May.
