PRESS RELEASE

OF  EX-SENATOR OJUDU AND NATION NEWSPAPER’S MISLEADING STORY
 
The attention of the general public is being drawn to a misleading publication by the Nation Newspapers online with headline “Fayemi’s failed mission to Villa with Giadom”, published in the online edition of the Nation Newspaper on Wednesday, June 24th, 2020.

The falsehood, we gathered reliably, was fabricated by a senior aide of the Presidency and a former Senator, Babafemi Ojudu, and planted in The Nation Newspaper, after it was rejected by some State House Correspondents, who rebuffed the former Senator for the misleading and malicious story.

It is on record that Senator Ojudu, in his desperate bid to rubbish Governor Fayemi, had told his close associates that he would battle Governor Fayemi, who is also the Chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum (NGF) with falsehood and cheap blackmail in his nefarious attempt to destabilize APC in Ekiti State.

While Ojudu has the right to continue to tread the path of perfidy which has been his lifestyle from time immemorial, we least expected the Nation Newspaper, a leading national daily whose motto is “Truth in Defence of Freedom” to buy into such cheap blackmail in form of an unverifiable report, without due regard to the principles of fairness. This is more so that modern technology has made the business of news gathering and editorial checks a lot easier, especially if the mission is about public good.

For the purpose of clarity, it is important to state that the Nation’s report was clearly a misleading one designed to cast aspersion on the person of Governor Fayemi and create an impression that the NGF Chairman is an unwanted visitor at the Villa. The largely unsubstantiated report was filled with bile, childish and unexplainable fury that signified nothing, just like a tale fit only for the tabloids.

We therefore implore the general public to disregard the highly illogical concoction that was served as an exclusive story.

In setting the record straight, we hereby state unequivocally that Governor Fayemi had no plan nor reason to see Mr President on Tuesday late afternoon as maliciously presented in the Nation’s report. The Governor, had earlier seen Mr President at noon in company of three of his colleagues - Governor Abubakar Atiku Bagudu (Kebbi), Governor Simon Lalong (Plateau) and Governor Badaru Abubakar (Jigawa). Also present at that meeting were the Chief of Staff to the President, Prof Ibrahim Gambari and Honourable Attorney General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami.

Governor Fayemi was in the villa later in the afternoon to see the COS and State Chief of Protocol (SCOP).

The Ekiti State Governor was never denied any opportunity to see President Buhari as he did not ask to see the President and neither did he go with Chief Giadom.

We are aware of surreptitious efforts to demonise and blackmail Governor Fayemi on account of the challenges the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) is undergoing.
We have tried not to join issues with the barrage of falsehood, personality attacks and campaign of calumny against Governor Fayemi on social media in the last two weeks because it is not in Dr Fayemi’s character to engage in unintelligent rabblerousing in the media. As a principled democrat, Dr Fayemi is committed to fighting for the principles of democracy within the political party he laboured with other notable Nigerians to birth. It is normal for political leaders to be in disagreement, but it should not lead to campaigns of calumny based on falsehood.

Governor Fayemi’s position on the APC crisis has been to consistently subsume his views in the position of the Progressives Governors Forum as expressed by the Chairman. He has not spoken on the party crisis in any public forum but continue to urge all members and lovers of the party to exercise restraint and support the leader of the party, President Mohammadu Buhari and other leaders desirous of resolution to give peace a chance.

We implore the Nation Newspaper and other media organisations to be wary of unfounded stories wrapped as “exclusives” by disgruntled elements like the Special Adviser to the President on Political Matters, Mr. Babafemi Ojudu who are now masquerading as news sources.

I pity Fayemi

After 2021 his political career ends as a 2 terms governor of Ekiti, he would be more useless than Peter Fayose of PDP in retirement before 2023


Can his little 7 governors pushed by Ameachi and Rufai, fight Vice President Prof Osinbajo, Oyetola, Sanwoolu, Masari , Ganduje, Hope Uzodinma, Babangana Zulum, SP Ahmed Lawan , Speaker Gbajabiamila, 17 national working committee members

Buhari that never saved , Aisha Buhari, Amosun, Ameachi/Tonye Cole, Orji Kalu, Rochas Okorocha, Obaseki would now save meaningless Giadom ?



.

Pls don't waste your time cautioning all those working for Oshiomole and his Lagos Master. Giadom is already doing a good job and President Buhari appears to be Giadom's big fan. The outcome of tomorrow's NEC meeting will be so heartbreaking that the Nation newspaper staff will be weeping while reporting the outcome of the meeting

Tinubu and Oshiomole camp will retreat to the dark shadows upon reading this news

Techmo, Fayemi is not your regular local champion. He is inside the cabal and within Giadom camp. Man is well positioned to scheme into Federal Govt after leaving Ekiti Govt House next year.
Also expect his stooge to take over, Giadom will ensure that as a reward for his unwavered loyalty in the build-up to his Chairmanship position.

Hehehe! Fayemi/Ojudu debacle have entered into the numbers of APC comedy again.

Up Giadom

Fayemi is the real betrayal after all what Tinubu and Bamidele have done for him to become Governor.

APC wahala long like these shoes

My people see painment ooh. You shouldn't pity Fayemi instead you should pity yourself. Who knows you in APC? I have never been a fan of the cabals but anything to humble Tinubu we the northerners are in full support. We don't celebrate corruption like bullion van. Tinubu should remain his zonal leader were he is.
