APC EXPOSES HOW 'FAYOSE KEEPS PADDING, SPENDING EKITI MONEY FRAUDULENTLY'

Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose

Ekiti state All Progressives Congress (APC), on Monday, censured the Governor of the state, Ayodele Fayose for plunging the state into a deplorable  condition, describing his actions as “an unconscionable and mindless treatment of Ekiti workers while Fayose enjoys lavish life”.

In a statement signed by the Publicity Secretary of the state APC, Taiwo Olatunbosun, Fayose was sternly condemned and accused of insincerity, deceit and lies.

The statement reads:

“Let us thank Governor Niyi Adebayo’s Commissioner for Finance, Bayo Aina, who foiled Fayose’s lie in 2003 when he (Aina) wrote to the House of Assembly of which I was a member, debunking Fayose’s claim that it would take 15 years to pay back the loan taken by Adebayo, which he first put at N5billion and later increased to N8billion.”

“The Adewale Omirin-led House of Assembly approved for Fayose to take N2b Central Bank loan for artisans and small scale traders, but up till now, he has not given one naira to anybody.”

“He deceived the workers that April federal allocation is N700m even though the Federal Ministry of Finance figure as published in the newspapers indicated that Ekiti collected N1.08b and you wonder what the governor did to the balance of N300m.”

“He has so far collected about N20b loans which he would not disclose to Ekiti people. These include the N9.6b bailout cash and another N10b taken from another bank while he also denied collecting refunds on federal roads and misapplied N2b Ecological Fund cash which he denied collecting for a long time until our party applied for FOI Law to get the fact in the Fund’s Office in Abuja.”

“He paid one month salary from N9.6b bailout and nobody knows what he did with the balance the same way that no one knows what he does with the fresh N10b loan and the interest it generates in the secret account he keeps the money after vowing several times never to borrow a naira to run his government, even as he continues to give inconsistent figures to workers as the state internally-generated revenue, including lying against the workers that they are part of revenue sharing after collection from Abuja.”

“While Fayemi borrowed for development purposes, which can be seen in roads and other development structures across the state, Fayose keeps padding, spending Ekiti money on projects rehabilitation fraudulently over-priced and given to his friends and cronies while Ekiti workers suffer.”
