EKITI DECIDE 2018 : FAYEMI SHOULD BEGIN HIS PROBE NOW – FAYOSE
Outgoing Governor of Ekiti State Ayodele Fayose, has challenged the governor-elect Dr. Kayode Fayemi, to begin the probe of his government now instead of waiting till October 16 that he will be sworn in.
Fayose advised the governor-elect to seek legitimacy for his election first rather than embarking on a vendetta mission that would consume him.
He, made the declaration through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, in his reaction to Fayemi’s threat.
“It is obvious that he will be consumed in his vendetta mission and rather than grandstanding, Fayemi should first seek legitimacy for his stolen mandate,” he said.
“He (Fayemi) should stop living in the world where the threat of probe scares people because we, in the government of Fayose, are not afraid of victimisation and vendetta that Fayemi is obviously coming with.”
Fayose described Fayemi as a beneficiary of a stolen mandate who was afraid to even come to the open to celebrate his “false victory.”
“Even yesterday (Wednesday) when he went to collect the certificate of the mandate that was snatched and handed to him by the powers that be in Abuja, he had to be protected by a police helicopter and hundreds of armed policemen. One wonders how he is going to rule the people they forced him on.
“If Fayemi is on a vendetta mission, which is obvious that he is, he will first destroy himself because like Ekiti and its people survived him during his first tenure, the people will outlive him this time too.
“During his first tenure, he probed the government of Segun Oni and said he (Oni) should refund N5.4bn to the state government account.”
