THE Peoples Democratic Party, PDP and a former governor of Ekiti State, Dr Kayode Fayemi were yesterday engaged in war of words over alleged moves to prosecute the former governor by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC. While the PDP raised alarm over plans to shield Fayemi from inevitable arrest and prosecution by EFCC, the former governor said the party was merely hallucinating.

In a statement by the state’s Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Mr Jackson Adebayo alleged that some leaders of APC were planning to approach President Muhammadu Buhari through his closets men from the north in a “desperate attempt to shield Fayemi from inevitable arrest and prosecution by EFCC”.

The party said “it has come to our notice that there is a sinister motive by the leaderships of the All Progressive Congress to put presure on the presidency to halt the investigation of the former APC governor by the EFCC when it dawned on them that the various petitions before the EFCC on the financial mismanagement of the APC administration in Ekiti State between 2010 and 2014 can not be ignored again by the anti graft body in its current moves against past governors.”,

The PDP, however, noted that “We are aware that the Special Fraud Unit of the Nigeria police have reached an advanced stage in their investigation of the financial mismanagement of the immediate past government in Ekiti State and alleged outright diversion of money meant for the state to private pockets. We are also aware that Fayemi has approached a top security chief who is very close to the president to intervene., “

Fayemi reacts

In his reaction, Chief Press Secretary to Fayemi, Mr Olayinka Oyebode declared that “I think the PDP-led government in the state is merely hallucinating.” Oyebode, ‘told Vanguard that “This is a pure case of hallucination. You and I know that it is the incumbent governor, Ayodele Fayose, that has a case with EFCC.

And I am sure you know that his N1.3billion poultry scam case came up at the Ado-Ekiti High Court sometimes in 2014 shortly before the elections. The case could not be heard on its adjourned date owing to the closure of courts in Ekiti since last year.” Oyebode added that “if there is anybody who should be running from pillar to post, begging to be bailed out of EFCC investigations or trial by the anti-corruption agencies, it should be Fayose.”

Absolving the Fayemi administration of mismanagement of state funds, Oyebode said “Fayemi ran one of the most responsible and corruption-free governments not only in Ekiti State, but in the country. He has been out of office for nine months and has not been invited by any anti-corruption agency be it EFCC or ICPC.’’

APC-Government of sentiment

Am surprised Fayemi still walk the streets a free man, this was the governor that spent a whooping #50mil purchasing his bed.

It's perfectly legal to be st*pid at times but some people just completely take advantage. PDP is st*pid.

Fayemi is the stupid one for spending 50million on buying just a bed, what else did he do, efcc must reveal the man's extravagance.

If Fayemi isn't clean, EFCC should pick him and do the needful. Fayemi being a PMB's loyalist, if prosecuted and convicted, then that would be a right signal to both former and serving polithiefcians that it will never be business as usual.

fayemi just chop frm ekiti purse Why fayose go Be the one who go loot ekiti purse

Blame it on Fayose. He's in the best position to discover any abnormalities in the previous administration.

I doubt Buhari would probe Fayemi, such a staunch loyalist, no way.

yellowbars and stealing, just like 5 and 6

That is the job of EFCC, anyway lets wait and see if Buhari would allow the prosecution of one of his staunchest supporters.

Why is PDP speculating on everything? Why not allow EFCC do their job the way they deem fit?

I am confident that if Fayemi has case to answer, EFCC will invite him and prosecute him if need be.

What should however baffle every reasonable and sane Nigerian (minus wailing wailers) is that all these cases/allegations of corruption now springing up were all committed under the dunce of a president that was deservedly kicked out by patriotic citizens. Where was EFCC since all the almost six years of that Otuoke Drunk? Oh, I get it now; EFCC couldn't do anything with a corrupt man as the president of Nigeria.

What EFCC has achieved in six weeks under PMB, it didn't achieve in six years of GEJ. It's a shameful fact in the face of TANoids/Wailers.

Fayemi looted Ekiti dry.

Where was EFCC under your Otuoke god to prosecute him, Ohakim, Nyako, Sule Lamido and others then?

Fayemi my man. Make I book space first.

Let EFCC do its work, and let Fay.... (Yemi or yose) defend his acts in office.

You're bereft of common sense, PDP Ekiti has already submitted the needed evidence.
If you feel like committing suicide I'd gladly provide the noose.

And how has that affected me?

My question is, where was EFCC during El Clueless time?

The current wave of investigations and prosecutions must cut across the divide. Nobody should be spared, afterall we did not send anybody to steal public funds.
We are tired of "stealing is not corruption".

Everybody that stole must be prosecuted whether PDP or APC.
