Addressing journalists in Abuja on Sunday, Governor Ayodele Fayose the Ekiti State Governor has told the President Muhammadu Buhari led All Progressives Congress (APC) to stop harassing his government by threatening functionaries of the government with arrest and looking for how his election was funded.
The governor said his election was not funded with public fund and that President Buhari and his APC should also tell Nigerians how their own elections were funded.
“Certain top functionaries of the Ekiti State government and some important members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti State, and some associates of mine, have now been pencilled down for arrest and indefinite detention by the EFCC under the guise of investigating the funds spent by the PDP on the 21st June, 2014 governorship election and the Presidential election,” he said.
He however stressed that “some politicians from Ekiti State, including an Ekiti born Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) and self-professed human rights activist and a Special Adviser to the Vice President are involved in the plot being coordinated through the office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation and the Attorney General
of the Federation.”
He said the game plan was to make those to be arrested get detained indefinitely, force them to make statements incriminating him, while at the same time feeding the public with orchestrated fake reports, using their usual media organs.
