The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti state has slammed Governor Fayose for allegedly hiking the price of his streetlight fuel supply cost within the state.

According to the APC, the governor was deliberately inflating the figure while spending less on the public light supply, all in a bid to short-change the people of Ekiti.

The APC also raised alarm over the increasing wave of criminal activities under the cover of the night in the state capital.

Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti state has been accused of defrauding Ekiti state

Taiwo Olatunbosun, the Ekiti APC spokesman said in a statement that the short period of light supply between 7pm and 10pm had encouraged criminals to terrorise residents at night.

Olatunbosun informed that cases of car snatching have increased while residents lose their possessions to thieves on the streets at nights unlike during former Governor Kayode Fayemi’s administration when streetlight supply spanned 6.30pm to 6.30am in the state capital.

“Ekiti people cannot continue in this reversal of fortunes since Fayose came on board. The governor said some time ago during his monthly media chat that he spent N210m monthly on streetlights. This is a blatant lie because NUPENG suppliers of diesel for streetlights have since revealed that only 10,000 litres of diesel are supplied monthly to power streetlights,” Olatunbosun said. http://www.bengist247.com/2016/03/apc-accuses-fayose-of-streetlight-fuel.html?m=0

Instead of them to ask to Power Minister to provide us with electricity, they are busy fighting the wrong man.

If there was constant power supply, would there be need to buy diesel for street-lightening?

My own concern is that was the job done?
