2023: Fayemi, Tinubu loyalists clash in Ekiti
Both Tinubu and Fayemi are yet to declare their presidential ambition ahead of the 2023 elections. 4 min read
The members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State loyal to Governor Kayode Fayemi and those backing the party’s national leader,
Bola Tinubu, have continued to be at logger heads in the state.
Although both principals are yet to officially declare their presidential ambition, analysts say they have begun to position themselves should the party zone their presidential ticket to the south.
The battle between the two groups took a different dimension on Monday when a member of the party and Chairman of Ado Ward 8, Clement Afolabi, was suspended for having links with the South West Agenda (SWAGA), a group campaigning for the candidature of the party’s national leader, an act that was described as an “anti-party activity.”

SWAGA, a group headed by Senator Dayo Adeyeye, has been moving across the South West states canvassing and soliciting supports for the 2023 presidential bid of former Lagos State governor, Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
