Civil servants in Ekiti
State will soon smile, as the
state government has keyed
into the bail-out plan for
states recently introduced by
the Federal Government and
has met all conditions
necessary to access the
fund.
This, the state
government said, would
complement its efforts at
prudently managing the
resources of the state to
meet the expectations of all
Ekiti people.
Briefing newsmen after the
Executive Council meeting
presided over by Deputy
Governor Kolapo Olusola, the
Commissioner for Finance,
Chief Toyin Ojo, said the
Ayodele Fayose-led
administration had taken all
necessary steps to benefit
from the fresh plan by the FG
to ameliorate the financial
conditions of state
governments.
Ojo, therefore, called on
public servants in the state
who are currently on strike
to return to their duty posts
and remember that Fayose’s
love for civil servants and
Ekiti people in general
remained firm.
Also briefing newsmen, the
Commissioner for Justice, Mr
Owoseni Ajayi, frowned at
what he called fresh attempt
by the Presidency and some
of its agencies to harass,
intimidate and threaten
officials of the state
government over issues
long-determined and settled
by the Supreme Court.
”We condemn in strong
terms alleged threat,
intimidation, harassment and
embarrassment of officials of
the state government by
agents of the Economic and
Financial Crimes Commission
(EFCC), the Department of
State Security (DSS) and
even the Presidency over
issues already settled by
Supreme Court.
“The allegations are to
coerce the people of the
state and they should note
that the government was
popularly elected by the
people of the state about two
years ago and the All
Progressives Congress
(APC) which was defeated
then went through all llegal
processes to challenge the
election and lost.
“Using a military panel that
assessed not only Ekiti poll,
but Osun, Rivers and
presidential poll is an
exercise in futility. Ekiti is
peaceful, we don’t have
miltancy or Boko Haram
trouble and we don’t want
anyone to provoke us and
the people of the state.
Nobody in the government,
organs of the government
and lawmakers doing their
legitimate duties should be
intimidated, harassed or
threatened in whatever form.
“They are doing all this
because Fayose is the only
voice of the opposition in the
country and that is
permissible under democracy
and when Dr Goodluck
Jonathan was the President,
former Governors Kayose
Fayemi, Rotimi Amaechi and
Babatunde Fashola criticized
him and they were not
harassed or intimidated.To
use state apparatus to
harass anybody will be
resisted. What Fayose is
saying is assisting the
government and the people
of Nigeria in general,” he
said.
Also, the Commissioner for
Information, Mr. Lanre
Ogunsuyi, said all lovers and
defenders of democracy
should not just watch and
see the opposition being
muzzled.
