In a statement issued on Sunday in Ado-Ekiti, he described the exercise as peaceful and well contested. He also praised other aspirants for their participation.
“I congratulate Hon. Sola Fatoba on his victory in the primary election. I also commend other contestants, especially Architect Tope Ogunleye and Hon. Sunday Ola. You are all heroes,” he said.
Olayinka also applauded the people of Ekiti Central Senatorial District for their support for Senate Leader, Senator Michael Opeyemi Bamidele, during his unopposed primary.
