Governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi, has absolved the All
Progressives Congress, APC, of any blame over the booing of his
predecessor, Mr Ayodele Fayose at the weekend.
He advised Fayose to desist from blaming others for his woes.
The
Ekiti governor was reacting to the allegation by Fayose’s Media Aide,
Lere Olayinka that some miscreants invaded Emmanuel Cathedral Church,
Ado Ekiti and booed Fayose during the wedding ceremony of the daughter
of Ewi of Ado Ekiti, Oba Rufus Adejugbe on Saturday.
Olayinka had alleged that the miscreants were calling Fayose unprintable names.
However,
Fayemi in a statement yesterday by his Senior Special Assistant on
Public Communication, Segun Dipe, said it was absurd for Olayinka to
have made such unsubstantiated allegation against the ruling party.
He
said: “Fayose lived as if there was no tomorrow, he reigned as if there
was no expiry date to his regime. He trampled on the rights of the
people, treating them like slaves in their own land.
“Our
findings about the unfortunate fate that befell the former governor is
that he was indeed booed, but by those he had offended within his own
party, the PDP, who felt bruised and pained about the way he enslaved
them within their own party.
“Fayose is the architect of his own
misfortune. He will be living in a fool’s paradise to think the people
will forget all his sins too quickly. He is now being haunted by his
past misdeeds.”
