Ekiti mayhem's fallout

Ekiti State Governor- Elect, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has said the call by the National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Alhaji Lai Mohammed, that he be arrested over recent political developments in the state was baseless, spurious and the product of an ignorant mind.

Speaking in Ado-Ekiti yesterday through his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Idowu Adelusi, Fayose said Mohammed was fed with lies about the happenings in Ekiti State and that he had exposed himself by commenting in a manner only an ignorant fellow would do.

Adelusi noted that he was not surprised by Mohammed’s outburst because he, like other APC leaders, were sad as their efforts to launch a judicial coup failed woefully last Monday.

'We Yoruba people have a saying
that ‘inu a bimo ku ki idun’ (somebody who gave birth and lost the child would not be happy).'

'Having snatched people’s mandate through the back door, not once but twice, to rule states where they did not win elections, the APC and its leaders thought it the best way to secure electoral victory.'

'They did those things in the past
through some spurious judgments
and were hoping for a repeat
performance in Ekiti State after
the people rejected them with His Excellency, Mr Ayo Fayose, trouncing their candidate 16 goals to zero. Their man could not even win his local government.'
