The All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State has raised the alarm over alleged plans by Governor Ayodele Fayose to ambush the campaign convoys of its presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (Retd.) as he comes to the state on Saturday, on a campaign visit.

The APC State Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatubosun, in a statement in Ado-Ekiti on Monday alleged that Fayose had already hired members of Oodua Peoples Congress to attack the convoys on their way to the rally as Peoples Democratic Party did in Rivers State.‎

“They are also to strike at the campaign grounds to cause stampede,” the party said.

The OPC members, the party said, were engaged as task force men to be removing the posters of APC candidates and had removed Buhari’s posters pasted in his campaign office in Ado-Ekiti as well as those pasted in the party’s office in the state capital.

The APC said Fayose’s desperation knew no bounds as he took the front page advertorial of a national daily on Monday depicting that Buhari will die in office like three other Presidents from the North died in office.

“This is dangerous for our national unity and ethnic harmony. Fayose is dangerous to Nigeria’s unity and the earlier the authorities, Nigerians and Ekiti people in particular appreciate this, the better for us as a nation,” Olatubosun said.

According to him, the OPC members were already in town to be deployed to entry points to Ado-Ekiti where they would ambush APC members on their way to the campaign grounds.

“This is a clear case of undermining the peace agreement by eminent international leaders last week‎ among the nation’s political leaders. It is sad that after President Jonathan campaigned in Ekiti State, Fayose sent signage officials and OPC thugs to be removing our candidates’ posters after paying necessary fees to the agency.”

“Fayose’s hatred for Buhari knows no bounds, as his aide was behind a fake medical report on Buhari declaring him as a prostate cancer patient.

The APC said Fayose was prosecuting the presidential election as the last battle of his life with its attendant security challenges.

Oro na to lati sun yan. The crassness in him is legendary. Totally uncouth and lacking in finesse.

The average Ekiti guy is well behaved , suave,principled and level headed.

I got to understand this when I found out that most of the guys that we became good friends at a very large organization where I once worked turned out to be "Ekiti kete"...I Dont know where Fayose go carry him loutish nature come from.
