Mayaki rejects Edo APC campaign council appointment

A stalwart of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Edo state, John Mayaki, has rejected his appointment as the Director, New Media of the party’s Campaign Council for the forthcoming gubernatorial election in the state.

In a statement on Sunday, he revealed that the potential impact of his working relationship with a colleague who he said was initially considered for this role is the basis for turning down the appointment.

Mayaki stated that accepting the position could create an uncomfortable situation, adding that he prioritised maintaining a harmonious work environment.

“I have communicated my decision to the relevant leaders before the final announcement.

“As a person of faith, I strive to live by principles that promote peace, integrity, and goodwill.

“I do not wish to hold grudges or engage in actions that could generate bad blood between myself and others. 

“It is essential for me to act in a manner that aligns with my values and fosters positive relationships.”
