Breaking: Fayose Opens Up, Explains How His Election Was Funded by Juve4(m): 4:32pm On Jun 22, 2016
Following allegation by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, justifying its freezing of the Zenith bank of Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State, over alleged tracing of funds from the office of the National Security Adviser, to the accounts of Messrs Fayose and Musiliu Obanikoro, ex-Minister of State for Defence, Governor Fayose on Wednesday, denied the allegations.

The EFCC had alleged that the funds, amounting to about N4.7billion, was moved from accounts operated by two of Mr. Obanikoro’s sons where it was transferred to Mr. Fayose’s Zenith Bank Account in Ado-Ekiti. But Fayose in a swift reaction said his 2014 election was funded by Zenith Bank Plc, fund raisers, donations from friends and associates, as well as sales of campaign souvenirs.

In a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, Governor Fayose said: “I have no financial transaction whatsoever with the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) under Col Sambo Dasuki (rtd) and former Minister of State for Defence, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro either by cash, cheque or electronic transfer.” Fayose challenged the anti-graft agency to publish statements made by Musiliu Obanikoro, his son or other persons associated with funds from the NSA’s supposedly used for his governorship election. He said: “EFCC is only acting a movie scripted, produced and directed by the All Progressives Congress (APC) government of President Mohammadu Buhari just to silence me being a major opposition voice in the country.”

On the alleged involvement of President Buhari’s wife, Aisha, in
 the Williams Jefferson bribery scam, the governor challenged the president’s wife to visit the United States of America to convince Nigerians that she was not the Aisha Buhari mentioned in the judgment. “It is on record that the President has visited USA three times and his wife did not travel with him. She ought to have visited USA last year September to chair a United Nation programme but she sent the wife of the Senate President, Mrs Toyin Saraki to represent her. “I advise that they should keep their gun pounder dry and wait till the end of my tenure in 2018 and I want to assure them that I will be available to answer any of their questions, no matter how unreasonable.” He added: “Furthermore, Nigerians should know that I have been persecuted by the EFCC before, using phantom N1.2 billion poultry scam and I came out victorious. I was not only acquitted, I got N10 million judgment against the EFCC and my impeachment that was orchestrated by the EFCC was quashed by the Supreme Court.

“Nigerians should recall that it was part of this plot to get back at me because of my critical stance on Buhari’s government that the Ekiti State House of Assembly was invaded by men of the Department of State Service (DSS), placement of travel ban on me and lately, illegal frozen of my account by the EFCC. “I therefore make bold to state that in the overall interest of democracy and well-being of Nigerians, I will continue to speak my mind on issues bordering on governance in Nigeria. I will not be intimidated.”

Fayose, this ur explanation cannot even convince a foetus talkless of an infant, but it can convince and confuse an ipod youth, ekpa, wailing wailer, wailing mourner, and flattinos, 5percenters, though, from the land of rising criminals, Biafra, palm tree roof republic, erosion ravage, red mud, bend and select mud house, world head qaurters of drug smugglers, world capital of baby factories and stupid okrika babiala deity.

But if you have more than 10,000 Donors and your bank statement proves it , Fayose i go nee down beg you
