Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose, has threatened to close down four commercial banks in the state over their alleged refusal to pay several millions of naira as taxes to government coffers.

He disclosed this on Monday during a parley with retirees in Ado Ekiti, the state capital.

Fayose, who said that he had obtained a court order to shut down the affected banks, lamented how some banks shortchanged government despite making huge profits from the state.
He warned the affected banks and other businesses owing government to pay up within days or face his wrath.

Fayose also reiterated his decision to make all private nursery, primary and secondary schools in the state pay newly-imposed taxes before resumption by middle of September.

Each of the private schools is expected to pay N150,000 into government coffers before reopening for the new academic session.

Similarly, anybody who purchases one cow to be slaughtered for any occasion will now pay N1,000.

FTC again!




That's my fearless Governor, always on point!

I don't understand Fayose. Is he running a one man show?
