The All Progressives Congress
(APC) on Monday reacted to plans by Governor Ayo Fayose to dump the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP.
Fayose on Monday threatened to
dump PDP, over what he described as attempt by some people to take over the
structure of the party and sideline those who have been toiling to keep the
party together.
Reacting to Fayose’s statement
that he may soon quit the PDP, Yekini Nabena, APC’s National Publicity
Secretary in a terse statement said the outgoing governor of Ekiti State will
be making a grave mistake if he thinks defecting to the ruling party will
shield him from prosecution if found guilty.
Nabena said Fayose will not
escape prosecution even if he joins the party at the expiration of his tenure.
The statement read: “Nigerians
know that this is a progressive party. No matter what, if found guilty, he will
be dealt with according to the dictates of the law.
“It is wishful thinking for
anyone to believe that joining APC will shield him from prosecution if found
guilty. Whether he likes he can join APC, SDP or any other political party, the
law will take its course.
“It is only under APC government
that high ranking people have gone to jail
“So, if Fayose likes let him
come, the law will still catch up with him if found guilty. Tell Nigerians and
the world, that even if Fayose comes to APC, the law will catch up with him if
found guilty.”
