EKITI State All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) of planning another round of mayhem, with the aim of intimidating the state into submission towards the October 16 inauguration of the Governor-elect, Mr. Ayodele Fayose.
The APC called on security agencies “to be vigilant and beam their searchlights on those beating the drums of war.”
The party’s Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatubosun, in a statement alleged that the PDP, fearing the legal hurdle to be crossed by its candidate before he could be sworn in, was mobilising for another showdown against the state’s innocent people, the government and the judiciary.

In a counter-statement yesterday, the state PDP Spokesperson, Kola Oluwawole, debunked the allegation, saying: “Nothing could be farther from the truth than such wanton fabrication.”
He said what the APC was planning was what it was accusing the opposition for.
Oluwawole, who noted that the PDP was already preoccupied with preparations towards the inauguration of the state governor-elect, queried:

“What will be the basis for such insurrection?”
But the APC’s statement reads: “We have our facts that beginning from tomorrow, Wednesday October 8, 2014, Fayose and the PDP leadership will take to the streets again to foment trouble, using some thugs brought in from the neighboring state and Ibadan.
“The plan was hatched in a meeting held at the Spotless Hotel belonging to the governor-elect. Barring a last-minute change of heart, they will start another round of protest and attacks on opposition leaders in the state capital to prevent the judiciary of smooth dispensation of the cases before it following the resolution of the National Judicial Council (NJC).
“This clandestine and anti-democratic move is actually showing that Fayose is above the law. There are provisions in the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria that qualifies one to vote and be voted for. The issue of election is not complete until the Election Tribunal dispenses all the cases or petitions emanating from such election or electoral process.

“We remain unperturbed by the threat. Our only worry is that their usual resorting to causing mayhem in the bid to take over the state by force and by fire is giving the entire state a bad name. We may be heading for another season of one week, one trouble.”
The APC said it gathered that anytime from now, Fayose and PDP thugs would start causing civil unrest.
It added: “We have it on good authority that they have been importing new set of thugs into the state to harass innocent people. We have it on good authority that they have been inciting some people to start protesting against the system.”
“If indeed Fayose is duly elected and has the legitimate right to the position, why is he afraid of crossing the legal hurdles as required by the statute? Why thus he want to ride on the back of chaos to the seat of government?
“We are seizing this opportunity to warn our peace-loving Ekiti sons and daughters to allow things to be done legally and orderly. Even Fayose should realise that whatever action he is taking today will become a sword in the hands of his perceived followers tomorrow when they are tired of his usual high-handedness. The earlier he follows the path of honour to power, the better.
“On our part, we will continue to follow the peaceful legal path.”
But the PDP’s counter-statement reads: “People across our dear state already know the style of the APC. It would cry wolf where there is none. People are seeking peace now and such an allegation has no basis. It is entirely unfounded.
“As far as PDP is concerned, we are planning the installation of Ekiti’s next governor. We are too busy in the preparations towards the inauguration and shall not be distracted a bit.”
