Exposed: Why We Were Sacked By Fayose — Ekiti Commissioner

One of the Ekiti State commissioners sacked by the state governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has opened up on the clandestine plot behind their sack earlier this week.

While speaking with our correspondent, he narrated their ordeal thus:

“We are not surprised by the sack, my brother. Before this time, I can tell you there is nothing like cabinet members under Fayose. 

“Since we were appointed, we had just two executive Council meetings, one at the cabinet chamber and the last one at Osuntokun building where all the commissioners stood up for more than one hour in a meeting with the Governor.

“Mind you, our contributions are not important. Sometimes I don’t even remember my portfolio. 

“Sometimes, I felt like resigning from the government. The government is the estate of one man. 

“The business of the state is the business of one family. It belongs to Fayose, his wife, sons and his mother. Those are his cabinet members.

“No one knows what goes around in the state. You see projects here and there and you asked: “Who are the contractors and how do they get the jobs.” 

“Even the commissioner of Finance does not know the contractors or how the contracts are being awarded. All he does is to pay the contractors. It is funny indeed my brother.

“All you see about this government is lie and nothing but lies. Everything about this government is fraud against the soul and spirit of Ekiti people. 

“You can imagine a Governor telling you that everything in this government is about him. 

“In this state today, nobody can approve anything, even as commissioner, I don’t approve anything. 

“I don’t know anything about the running of this government. Everybody has been coerced including the labour leadership. 

“The Accountant General has no says in the finances of the state. The Governor only asked her to tell the state whatever figure of money they agreed upon on a monthly basis. 

“Everybody is suffering under this government. So, for me, this is a relief. I have just dragged myself back only under this government.

“Can you imagine that all the street lights across the state are being handled by Rogba, the first son of Fayose? 

“All the cements on projects are being supplied by his mother, while the wife is in charge of other materials such as granites, iron rods and so on. 

“The state has been massively and fraudulently milked by the Fayose’s. That is just my position.

“He wanted us to beg him and coerce us to signing an oath of allegiance secretly. That’s why we are being handled this way. 

“The issue of Aribisogan is seriously giving him a sleepless nights. He is confused and dejected presently. 

“This week, he will be carrying out the secret oaths with the remaining House of Assembly members and the incoming Commissioners. 

“That is the truth my brother.

“I pray to God to save the soul of Ekiti people from the demon called Fayose. 

“In no distant time, more of the secrets of Fayose will be in the public domain and by that time, maybe Ekiti people will be wise enough to use their votes to send him back to where he belongs.”
