Gboyega Aribisogan, the Minority leader of the Ekiti State House of Assembly, has accused the State Governor, Ayodele Fayose of plotting to kill him.

Addressing a press conference in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital, on Tuesday, Aribisogan, who was suspended for 180 days claimed that Fayose was plotting to kill him in order to deny his constituency’s permanent representation at the State House of Assembly.

He claimed that the governor had drafted one Tajudeen Olagunju also known as Alhaji to the Assembly Complex to attack him if he shows up.

Aribisogan alleged that part of Fayose’s plot to assassinate him was the setting up of a committee headed by Hon. Dele Fajemilehin representing Gbonyin local government, which was to lure him to the Governor’s office under the pretense of inviting me to a committee meeting, in order for Olagunju to attack him and escape to the Governor’s residence in Magodo GRA, Lagos.”

According to Aribisogan, “I welcome you all to this briefing. Let me use this opportunity to thank you for your immeasurable support for our great party, the All Progressive Party (APC). I also thank you for standing by us always.

“I also want to personally thank you for your support for me since the beginning of my ordeals in the hands of Governor Fayose and the leadership of Ekiti State House of Assembly.

“You will recall that I have been having a running battle with the leadership of Ekiti State House of Assembly since October 7, 2016 over the illegal 180 sitting days suspension handed down on me and Ikole constituency 1.

“You are also aware of my official resumption on June 8, 2017 after nine months of denying my constituency the needed representation in Assembly.

“You will also recall that I said the House leadership led by Rt Hon. Kola Oluwawole had continued to violate the Standing order of the House which says no member of the House can be suspended beyond 14 legislative days.

“Gentlemen of the press, you are aware of my defection from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on account of the division and fictionalisation of the PDP to the All Progressive Congress on June 27,2017.

“Since I left the PDP, Governor Ayo Fayose in connivance with Rt Hon, Kola Oluwawole have been plotting to kill me and deny my constituency permanently from being represented in state Assembly.

“As I address you, the Governor has drafted his killer squad led by one Tajudeen Olagunju a.k.a Alhaji to the Assembly Complex. These hoodlums with guns and dangerous weapons, have been detailed by the governor and Pastor Oluwawole to attack me and my constituents anytime we move near the Assembly complex.

“Part of the plot of the governor to silence me was the setting up of a Committee headed by Hon Dele Fajemilehin representing Gbonyin local government to lure me to the Governor’s office under the pretence of inviting me to a committee meeting, so that Tajudeen Olagunju can easily attack me and escape to Governor’s residence in Magodo GRA, Lagos.

“When they discovered that the plot had leaked, the Speaker quickly dissolved the Committee and planned to set up another one that will be used to carry out the dastardly act.”

However, Governor Fayose’s spokesperson, Lere Olayinka has dismissed the allegation. Olayinka maintained that Aribisogan is not the Minority Leader of the State House of Assembly.

“To start with, Aribisogan is not the Minority Leader of the Ekiti State House of Assembly; also the state government will not descend so low to responding to a man like Aribisogan,” he said.
