The APC issued a statement in reaction to Fayose’s comment that he
could not pay salaries because the former Governor of the Ekiti state,
Kayode Fayemi plunged the state in debt.
The Ekiti state chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has accused Governor Ayo Fayose of leaving a lavish lifestyle, while workers in the state are suffering.
The
APC issued a statement in reaction to Fayose’s comment that he could
not pay salaries because the former Governor of the Ekiti state, Kayode Fayemi plunged the state in debt.
The Ekiti APC Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatunbosun said “The
Adewale Omirin-led House of Assembly approved for Fayose to take N2bn
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 the April federal allocation is N700m even
though the Federal Ministry of Finance figure as published in the
newspapers indicated that Ekiti collected N1.08bn and you wonder what
the governor did with the balance of N300m.”
The
party also praised the civil servants for taking the bold step to
continue the strike, despite several alleged attempts of the government
to intimidate them.
Olatunbosun added that “He(Fayose)
has so far collected about N20bn loan which he would not disclose to
Ekiti people. These include the N9.6bn bailout cash and another N10bn
taken from another bank while he also denied collecting refunds on
federal roads and misapplied N2bn ecological funds which he denied
collecting for a long time until our party applied the FoI Act to get
the fact from the Ecology Fund Office in Abuja.
