A former Chairman of the Human Rights Committee, Nigerian Bar Association (NBA), Port Harcourt branch, Mr. Augustine Ojekudo yesterday decried Ekiti Governor, Ayo Fayose’s punishment to workers that reported late to work.

Ojekudo stated in Port Harcourt that the corporal punishment the governor meted out to the state civil servants, especially directing them to kneel down was not necessary.

Fayose was reported to have ordered the workers to kneel down for reporting late to work in Ado Ekiti.

Ojekudo noted that the governor’s action was not only crude but condemnable and said such humiliation should not be taken kindly.

“For a governor elected by the people to punish workers, is the height of torture, torment and intimidation.

“The matter should not be left just like that; he was elected for the good of the people only to humiliate them.’’

According to Ojekudo, the children of affected workers will feel bad seeing their parents and guardians on television kneeling down.
He, however, said the workers in the first place, should not have obeyed the governor’s ‘’crude’’ order.

Ayodele Fayose!




Asking workers to kneel down for coming to work late reminds me of primary school. Abi Fayose don be teacher?

All the same, civil servant are always found of coming to work late or sometime not even coming to work at all as the case my be.

I concur

I other words, Ekitites are to resume office whenever they like??



Permit me to tell you that this "Mr Augustine Ojekudo" traded his senses for "Vanilla Ice cream..

Peter Ayodele leader in the making.

Future Nigeria president, just love this guy.
