Femi Bamisile, the former speaker of the Ekiti state House of Assembly, has said that Governor Ayodele Fayose will loot the treasury through the state’s N17billion airport project.

The ex-speaker wondered where the governor got the courage to embark on the project while always complaining about the debt profile of the state.

The Punch reports that Bamisile berated Fayose at a press conference on Friday, October 2, in Ado Ekiti.

The former speaker also criticized the governor for allegedly raising the debt profile of the state at various fora to smear his predecessor, Kayode Fayemi.

“What we have now is unfortunate. It is clear that Ekiti owes N18.8b courtesy of what came from Debt Management Office. It is a sign that the present government has lost figure or is looking for a way to inflate the figure,” he said.

Bamisile urged Fayose to stop complaining about the N9.6billion bailout loan approved for Ekiti state by the federal government to settle arrears of workers.

“We are not surprised about the amount released to Ekiti because we have small work force but the amount is enough to settle the deficit. Eleven months were owed in Plateau and the governor has paid. We are surprised our governor has not paid,” he noted.

The ex-speaker alleged that the governor had stashed the bailout in a first generation bank instead of paying workers in the state.

Commenting on the state’s N17billion airport project, Bamisile listed several questions that Fayose should answer.

“The governor has repeatedly said the state was owing. I’m wondering why he is embarking on a N17billion project. We have an airport in Akure which is 45 km away. What economic value would it have for the state?

“Has the government given out the project? Did Fayose follow the laid down rules? Where is the tender and where was it advertised?

“I see it as a conduit for him to take money out of the state. As a former speaker, I want the governor to tell us the legislative processes that have taken place since he announced the airport project. Is it the state government that clears a contract awarded to another company? Is it a direct labour?”

Meanwhile, the Ekiti state government has commenced works at the proposed airport site at Aso Ayegunle village in Ado local government area.

Five bulldozers were seen clearing the site since the very morning till late in the evening with Kayode Oso, the state commissioner for works, leading newsmen round the hectares of land.
