Ekiti State governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, has restated his commitment to the peace and development of the state both in and out of office.

The governor who reiterated this in Ado Ekiti at a Jumat service marking the fourth anniversary of his administration, yesterday stated that the state has enjoyed relative peace under his administration.

Dr Fayemi said though there might be some setbacks, God has enabled the leadership of the state to remain strong and steady.

He thanked Ekiti indigenes for the support given to his government since he assumed office in October 2010.

“Setbacks are bound to happen in life but whatever happens, God has enabled us to remain strong and steady.

“The state is still peaceful even though the people may not have got all they desire.

But I am here to show gratitude for standing by my administration and for your prayers for us. I want you to know that whether I am in government or not, the peace of Ekiti State and its progress and all that will make cooperation reign among the people are important to me.
