See Attacks Unleashed on Buhari and EFCC over Governor Fayose

It has been thunder and brimstone between the Buharis's and Governor Fayose of Ekiti state following the frozen of his personal account by the EFCC. Personalities and groups have all poured out different opinions some supporting the Governor and urge the president and the EFCC to leave Fayose and obey the laws of the land while others in support of the action by the EFCC.

Following an alleged plot to unseat Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti state, members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) took to the streets on Thursday, June 30, to protest.

The PDP members trooped out in their numbers in Ido-Ekiti headquarters of Ido/Osi local government, in support of Governor Ayo Fayose, The Nation reports.

According to the protesters, any attempt by the federal government to remove Governor Fayose will not be condoned.
They condemned alleged plot by the government to “hide under the pretext of an investigation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to remove the governor.”

Some of their placards read: “Stop harassing Fayose”; “Fayose remains blameless”; “Fayose must complete his tenure” and “Peace must remain in Ekiti”.

Speaking at the rally, a PDP chieftain, Adeola Ogunrinade, said the protest was staged to drum up support for Fayose, who he described as the “leader of opposition in Nigeria.”

He said: “The people trooped out in the last election to vote for Governor Ayodele Fayose because he did well in his first coming. Although they truncated his tenure, we won’t allow that this time.

“Any of the lawmakers in the House of Assembly who works against the governor is working against Ekiti interest and we won’t hesitate to recall the person.

“They are in the Assembly on the benevolence of the governor. So any act of betrayal will be taken as a coup against our collective interest.”
