Ayodele Fayose, former governor of Ekiti state, was involved in an accident on third mainland bridge in Lagos on Wednesday.
Lere Olayinka, media aide of the former governor, announced this on Twitter.
He said Fayose was in a stable condition and receiving medical treatment.
“Immediate past Governor of Ekiti State, Mr Ayodele Fayose was involved in auto accident on 3rd Mainland Bridge in Lagos, a few minutes ago. He is in stable condition as I write while he is receiving medical attention,” he wrote
Olayinka later disclosed that the former governor was on his way to Ibadan in preparation for the Southwest campaign rally of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
He said; “I am happy to inform members of the public that former Governor Ayodele Fayose is now fairly okay.
“The former governor thanked God for limiting the impact of the accident, particularly on occupants of the vehicle.
“As the Southwest Coordinator of the Atiku Presidential Campaign, who is committed to the task of enthroning a PDP government in 2019, Fayose has insisted on coming to Ibadan today, to prepare for tomorrow’s campaign rally and he is on his way to the ancient city.
“Thank you all.”
Last year, Fayose’s convoy was involved in a similar accident in Lagos but he escaped unhurt. A Mercedes G Wagon belonging to him got burnt.
