Fayose might not finish this tenure if care is not taking

FORMER secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ekiti State chapter, Dr Temitope Aluko, revealed at the weekend, in Abuja, how former President Goodluck Jonathan assisted the governor of Ekiti State, Mr Ayodele Fayose with  $2 million to prosecute the primaries and $35 million for the June 21, 2015 election.
Aluko, who played a prominent role in the process, admitted that the military equally assisted during the election and made victory possible, adding  that “we went into the election with 1,040 recognised soldiers and another batch of 400 unrecognised ones brought in from Enugu.”
The embattled PDP secretary, who has now fallen out with Governor Fayose, was the chairman of security and intelligence committee of the Fayose Campaign Organisation.
Giving reasons he fell out with erstwhile compatriot, he insisted that Fayose had derailed from the Ekiti Agenda which “we sat and put together by himself, Fayose and Femi Bamisile.”
According to him, Bamisile and himself were the two people who persuaded Fayose to come and contest the governorship seat, saying “as we believed that he is the only one in view of the prevailing circumstances then that can win the state for the party. We shared the governmental positions among ourselves, thus: Fayose (governor), Bamisile (deputy governor) and myself (Chief of Staff). Though he changed my own to Secretary to the Government, but in spite of that, we continued the struggle to rescue Ekiti from the government of Fayemi.”
Aluko, who spoke to newsmen in Abuja, at the weekend, was the Chief Returning Officer for Fayose, who signed all the results sheets during the last governorship election, admitted that he was fully involved in the plot with Fayose from the very beginning.
Aluko, who now said he had been dumped by Fayose, insisted that he was forced to divulge this information because Fayose betrayed him and jettisioned “the original plan they had for the development of the state after winning the election. Before the election, Fayose, Bamishile and I  jointly swore with the Holy Bible on a sharing formula after we must have won the election.”
“But the moment he got into office, Fayose forgot completely the agreement and dumped me.  More worrisome is the fact that Fayose has derailed from the original Ekiti project we envisaged. I apologise to Ekiti people over my activities for bringing back Fayose.”
He disclosed that before the primaries, the former president gave his team the sum of  $2 million in March 2014 for the primaries and that the cash was collected in Abuja and we later “took the money to Fayose’s private house, located at Prince and Princess Estate, Abuja, from where it was moved to Ekiti.
“Immediately after the primaries, we collected additional $35 million from the president again. The money was brought to us by a former minister and we all assembled at the front office of Spotless Hotel, Ado Ekiti, owned by Fayose. Thereafter, the cash was taken to a Bureau De Change in Onitsha, where it was converted to around N4.7 billion.”
He added that later, Fayose collected another N3 billion cash from one politician from Ogun State, for the purpose of bringing back to life, the almost dead  PDP structure in Ekiti State.
On how the  military and other security agencies assisted during the election as it was then believed that the only way the PDP could win the election was to use the military, he said: “We went into the election with 1,040 recognised soldiers and another batch of 400 unrecognised soldiers brought from Enugu, as the former president summoned a security meeting at the Presidential Villa for the purpose of the election.
“At that meeting, the former president made it clear that Fayose would stand for him (as Commander-In-Chief) in terms of providing security for the election.”
Aluko informed that “44 special strike teams were brought from Abuja and Onitsha. We made special stickers for the vehicles that conveyed members of the strike team and black hand bands for each of them.
“Each strike team was made up of 10 members, headed by a soldier and comprising soldiers, policemen, DSS operatives and Civil Defence corps officers. They were detailed to attack and arrest prominent APC chieftains in all the local governments.”
Detention camps were set up mostly in primary schools “where most of the opposition chieftains were detained. Others were detained in police stations, where the officers in charge were friendly with us. We let them off after the election was over.
“We set up anchorage, mainly residential houses, in every local government where the strike team members collected their welfare and other allowances.
“To encourage the strike team members, we gave them orders to share money and other valuables they could lay their hands on in the houses of opposition chieftains they raided.
“A day to the election, we used the military to block all routes in the local governments and prevented opposition movement and we ensured that no opposition was in sight during election. We provided polling agents for the opposition in most of the polling units so we had no problem getting them to sign election results in the units.”
Aluko added that 64 party stalwarts were picked from each of the 16 council areas of the state, saying that these “64 party stalwarts were carefully picked because they knew the terrain in their respective council areas very well.
“They gave detailed information regarding names and locations of opposition members in all the local governments, the various routes, areas of strength and weaknesses of the PDP in the 16 local governments.
“Presently, he said that most of these 64 hatchet men are members of the Senate, House of Representatives, state House of Assembly, commissioners, local government chairmen, special advisers, among others.”
