A former Governor of Ekiti State,
Ayodele Fayose, has stated that he was leaving the State Governor, Dr. Kayode
Fayemi “to his master, the devil”, since he has allegedly refused to act like
someone with godly mind.
Fayose said Fayemi has started
enjoying the benefits of the mandate the powers-that-be in Abuja helped him to
steal.
Fayose spoke through his Media
Aide, Lere Olayinka, in reaction to Fayemi’s statement yesterday, that he was
not interested in probing Fayose and that he has left him to God.
According to the ex-governor, “He
(Fayemi) should rather be sincere enough to tell the public that he has checked
all the books and found nothing incriminating against Fayose.”
In a statement issued on Tuesday, Fayose described Fayemi’s new position that he was not
interested in probing Fayose as an afterthought, saying, “After going through
all the books and could not find anything incriminating, he is now saying he
won’t probe, who is telling him not to probe?
“Has he forgotten that it was at
the same State House, Abuja that he said on July 19, 2018 that he was going to
probe Fayose? So what has changed other than the fact that he has failed in his
desperate bid to get evidences of corruption against the former governor?
“Fayemi should act like someone
with conscience for once by letting the people know how he has been carrying
operatives of the EFCC up and down, looking for what Fayose did and did not do.
He should tell Nigerians how he harboured EFCC officials in the government
house for over two weeks, lavished millions of naira on them and also misled
them to go about sealing off properties belonging to innocent people in Ado
Ekiti under the guise that they belong to Fayose.
“The fact is that Fayemi has
found nothing against Fayose and that’s why he has adopted a face-saving
tactic.
“No one is asking Fayemi not to
probe his predecessor. He is the one who was not bold enough to appear before a
duly constituted probe panel, Fayose is not afraid and that was already demonstrated
by the former governor’s unprecedented submission of himself to the Economic
and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) less than 24 hours after he left office.
“Let him set up a duly
constituted judicial commission of inquiry today, Fayose will personally appear
before the panel.
“We only hope that Fayemi too
will do the same when he is eventually kicked out office so that he can explain
how he acquired those Multi-Billion Naira properties in Lagos, Ilishan Remo in
Ogun State, Abuja and abroad.”
