Fayose stated these at a meeting with beneficiaries of N5,000 social welfare scheme at the government house in Ado Ekiti on Monday.
Fayose gave a strong warning to men beating their wives, saying he would ensure their prosecution and imprisonment if there was incriminating evidence against them.
“We are against violence against women in Ekiti. If you do it and I have evidence against you, you will go to prison.
“There are several ways of dealing with a woman. There is zero tolerance to violence against woman in Ekiti,” he said.
The governor told the people that there were ongoing projects in 11 of the 16 Local Government Areas, promising to extend to others.
Fayose also urged the people to support his government to anoint a successor in office that will continue with his good works.
“What we need is continuity. Lagos is working and the state is developing. This is because there is continuity in government.
“It is my desire to achieve successes on all fronts. I appeal for your support for my government. I will leave office one day but I will be best remembered for my legacies.
“When a wrong person is appointed he will destroy all the good works we have done. Never should a wrong person that will leave us in debt be appointed again.
“If power transit to the person we all choose and we will have access to, he will continue the good job. You will be the one to choose the candidate”, he said.
The governor urged the people to go for continuous voter registration and obtain their voter cards.
Ayodele Fayose, has also directed that the new Government House, Oke Ayaba, be named after the Governor of the old western region, the late Gen. Adeyinka Adebayo.
