The People’s Democratic Party,(PDP ) in Ekiti has again warned the State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi to desist from the alleged secret plot to seize state lands to build ranches for herders.

The opposition claimed that such a plot would negate the wishes of Ekiti people who believe that their lands are ancestral and as such precious to them and should not be forcefully hijacked to please the herdsmen.

A statement issued in Ado Ekiti on Thursday by the Party’s State Publicity Secretary, Raphael Adeyanju, accused governor Fayemi of secretly plotting to acquire lands in six locations across the state to satisfy the yearnings of the herdsmen.

Adeyanju said the action, which he described as devilish and self-serving would be resisted by all well-meaning and progressive Ekiti people across party, religious and traditional divides.

The PDP spokesperson revealed that in no distant time, the government would initiate a policy under the guise of acquiring lands to boost agriculture and promote food security, which it believes would be a smokescreen to hijack lands to please the herdsmen.

The PDP said: “It is no longer news that Governor Fayemi has been hobnobbing with some political interests to advance his presidential ambition not minding what happens to his people at home. But charity they say begins at home.

“We reliably gathered from those in his government that the present APC government in Ekiti was planning to hijack lands in six towns of Omuo Ekiti, Emure, Oke Ako, Otun, Okemesi and Ipole Iloro.

“The idea was that there would be two ranches in each of the three Senatorial districts and these lands would be acquired by deceiving landowners that the state wants to embark on aggressive food production through a policy that will be introduced by the Ministry of Agriculture.

We heard from the grapevine that the Registration the government undertook for herdsmen just recently was meant to ascertain the number of lands that will be required to settle them into the proposed ranches, even when they lied to the people that it was for identification. This became doubtful because a lot of our people are still being attacked on their farms and no one has been arrested as of now.

“Some traditional rulers who got wind of this evil plot recently raised an alarm. But impeccable sources revealed to us that the government was planning to reintroduce the unpopular ranching policy through another policy.

“We want our traditional rulers, Chiefs and every lover of Ekiti to be on alert and join progressive forces to stop this evil plot.

“Politics apart, no one is happy with the increasing rate of kidnapping in Ekiti at present. The suspected herders were kidnapping our citizens and even desecrating the traditional institutions with the shooting of Elewu of Ewu Ekiti, Oba Adetutu Ajayi and the kidnapping of Obadu of Ilemeso Ekiti, Oba David Oyewumi.

“So, all lovers of peace should beg Governor Fayemi not to sacrifice the Ekiti people’s souls on the altar of politics”, he stated.

If fayemi the bastard forcibly take over ekiti people's lands and give them to the fulani terrorists, may almighty God destroy him and his family and he will never know any peace again for the rest of his life

Ok

.

Saboteurs.... Instead of focusing on the heat of this secession they want to give them land

Fatemi has presidential ambitions, pleasing the terrorist herdsmen is a short cut to achieving that dream. Tinubu has to counter this move by thinking fast and donating the entire stretch from elegushi to second toll gate to the Fulani militia

help. I graduated in 2016, served in 2018 but no job till now

That's disaster waiting to happen

Amen. The man is murderously ambitious.

Calm down

The Governor after Fayemi will simply collect it back
If he tries it.

Fayemi the fulani slave.. someone should tell the didinrin governor the story of Afonja and Alimi.

The same herders will come to Ekiti and wipe you out with your entire lineage. Bloody saboteur

Not possible
