Ekiti state governor, Ayo Fayose,
has reacted to allegations made by APC members in his state that he is one of
those funding members of the now-outlawed secessionist group, IPOB.
The party
in a statement released by the state party publicity secretary, Taiwo
Olatunbosun over the weekend, said utterances made by Fayose in the past
has proven that he is one of those funding the group. Part of the statement
reads.
"He led a campaign to the
Chinese Embassy in Abuja and later to Shanghai, the Chinese capital, to urge
the Chinese government not to lend hands in helping Nigeria out of recession.
Relentlessly, he led hate campaigns against the symbol of the Nigerian
authority, President Muhammadu Buhari, wishing him dead, including hounding and
haunting the President across the world, including on his sick bed, and
threatening to expose the President on a life-support machine, all these in
spite of swearing to uphold the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria
and to be loyal to the Nigerian state and her President.
He went further as reported in
the media on May 25, 2017 that ‘Ekiti State is now part of Biafra’, which drew
the ire of several Yoruba groups as reported in the media. Not done, while
Nigerians and indeed the country’s leaders were celebrating Nigeria’s exit from
recession, Fayose was the only governor across the country who dismissed the
celebration as a ruse, maintaining that Nigeria was still in a deep economic
mess even though in his state, he is the biggest stumbling block to the
survival of Ekiti people by diverting all loans he took to pay workers salary
to needless projects contracts awarded to his friends’ companies in which he
allegedly has interest.
His support for Kanu in funds
mobilisation for his treasonable act and the activities of Fayose’s media men
in promoting the Biafran cause only point to one agenda to destabilise Nigeria
and that has proved us right that Fayose has no agenda than the destabilisation
of Nigeria to enable him to escape all illegal and criminal activities linked
to him in recent past".
