234GT: If Fayose had been dealt with decisively for corruption, he would not be pasting any political posters again.

emmatony: Seven persons were reportedly injured as some Action Congress of Nigeria members in Ekiti State and supporters of former Governor Ayo Fayose clashed in Ado-Ekiti on Thursday.

Our correspondent gathered that fight broke out between them over the pasting of posters at Irona area of Ado-Ekiti. Fayose’s supporters are of the Peoples Democratic Party.

It was learnt that supporters of the ex-governor, who celebrated 52nd birthday, were going round the town pasting his political posters when they were stopped by a man.

The man, whose name could not be ascertained, was said to have also prevented the ex-governor’s supporters from pasting posters on an uncompleted building next to his house which he claimed was his father’s house.

However, a supporter of Fayose, who identified himself as Ariyo, said they moved away from the area when they were stopped from pasting their posters but some youths, who were armed with weapons, attacked and injured three of them.

But a source, who identified himself as Taye, told our correspondent that Fayose’s supporters insisted on pasting posters on the houses which were owned by ACN members.

He claimed that the PDP supporters attacked the man and other members of the ACN in the area.

The Director-General of the Ayo Fayose Campaign Organisation, Mr. Gboyega Oguntuase, in his reaction to the clash, blamed the attack on the ruling party, saying it was not tolerant of the opposition.

However, the Commissioner for Information, Mr. Funminiyi Afuye, blamed Fayose for the crisis.

He sad the ex-governor had been going round fomenting trouble in the state but added that the case had been reported to security agencies.

According to him, there is an existing law in the state which forbids illegal and indiscriminate pasting of posters.

He said anybody who wanted to paste posters needed to respect the signage law, get the approval of the agency and pay the stipulated amount before going ahead to do so.
