Fayose Dares EFCC Over His, Dasuki’s Frozen Bank Accounts

Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose has challenged the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) to make public his account statement and that of the embattled former National Security Adviser (NSA), Sambo Dasuki.

Fayose made this challenge on Sunday just about a day after granting an interview to Fresh FM in Ibadan, in which he regaled the nation with details of how he is being unjustly persecuted.

The Governor, speaking through his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, in a statement on Sunday, said “What I am facing in Ekiti is a war of the elite and incidentally, it is the masses that vote people into office. We know some failed Ekiti politicians who now resume daily in EFCC office to concoct stories and give same to their commissioned newspapers to publish.‎ It is only one or two newspapers that always have their so-called exclusive stories and they follow the same pattern.

“The EFCC is only engaged in mind game. They think they can wear me out, that is not possible as God is on my side because I stand for the truth. EFCC has not told Nigerians how money was wired to me, they must be responsible to do investigation that would not be a media issue. What the EFCC and their APC collaborators are trying to do is to set the people of the state against me and they have failed.

“In my two accounts that they have frozen, I have N300 million in the fixed deposit one and N82 million in the other. Both accounts and my properties were duly declared in my Asset Declaration Form. They are treading the same 2006 path and they will fail woefully by the grace of God. What they did in 2006, the Supreme Court declared it illegal and I came back to office exactly eight years after. It means one of us lied and was mischievous,” he said.

“We cannot all be in the APC, if we are then, we are no longer practising democracy. There must be opposition and that is to keep those in government on their toes, but if you now make silencing the opposition as your main programme, then, you are short changing the people.”

Fayose also confront the APC and its leaders to explain to the people how election funding was done in the last general election. He then noted that a defector from the PDP to the APC should not out of the blue become an angel or a saint.
