Ekiti Indigenes Kick Against Gov. Fayemi’s Choice Of LCDA Headquarters by potland: 1:43pm On Sep 07, 2021
Aiyede-Ekiti in the Oye local government area of Ekiti has protested the omission of its name as the headquarters of the newly-created local council development area (LCDA) by Governor Kayode Fayemi.

The community addressed a news conference on Monday in Ado-Ekiti, and distributed a document titled, ‘Aiyede-Ekiti Rejects Its Omission from the Newly Created LCDA Headquarters in Ekiti’.

The National President of Aiyede Progressive Union (APU), Ayo Ajayi, described Mr Fayemi’s decision as unfair and targeted at subduing “the third largest community in Oye LGA under a smaller community.”

Isan-Ekiti, which, according to APU, had less social, political and economic viability, was named the LCDA headquarter.

Ekiti’s Attorney General and Commissioner for Justice, Olawale Fapohunda, admitted that the secretariat of the LCDA committee confirmed the receipt of the APU petition.

“A decision will be made this week,” said Mr Fapohunda.

“Please wait for the government’s decision.”

The Ekiti LCDA bill was passed by the Ekiti House of Assembly on August 4 and signed into law on August 6 by Mr Fayemi.

The association’s president added that although the governor had sited the Ifesowapo LCDA’s headquarters in his hometown, Isan-Ekiti, he suggested the government should “right the wrong.”

Mr Ajayi appealed to Mr Fayemi to reconsider his position and create a new LCDA for Aiyede-Ekiti. He, however, clarified that the town was not in any way asking for the removal of the one already sited at Isan-Ekiti.
