This is a joke taken too far. Gboyega got 15 votes, while this stooge of Fayemi got only 10. How is 10 more than 15. I thought Ekiti was the bedrock of education on of their educational acumen. Or is maths no longer a threshold of education?! Do Ekiti people only know literature and history, and not maths.

Nonsense. BAO and co locked up the speaker's ers in police cell while the speaker was away in Abuja and elected this kangaroo speaker.

I am disappointed she could stoop so low

Which congrats? She is a stooge of Fayemi, who couldn't even muster the required amount of votes to win. She's a woman, yes; but a novelty wrong will still end up as wrong. The implication of this culmination will eventually be the fruition of their aspiration.

They are so full of books, to the point that they don't know ordinary maths of 15 being greater than 10.
