Politics / Buhari's Anti-corruption Mere Noise-making, Diversionary, Witch-hunting – Fayose by gunnersjohn(m): 3:52pm On Aug 05, 2015
Buhari's anti-corruption mere noise-making, diversionary, witch-hunting – Fayose


Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has taken a swipe on the Federal Government anti-corruption stance, describing it as mere noise-making, witch-hunt and diversionary tactic to hoodwink the public into overlooking the seeming failure of the government to deliver on its electoral promises.

The governor said; “If President Mohammadu Buhari knows exactly where the stolen funds are kept and who looted the funds, he does not need all these public announcements. Rather, he should make public names of the looters and bring back the purported stolen funds, location of which he has identified. It is when he is able to bring back the money that he should make announcements of recovered funds.”

Governor Fayose who spoke through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, said; “You don't announce a process to the public. Rather, you announce the results because that is what is of interest to the people. It is like you are announcing that you know where armed robbers reside, won't they change their location?”

Speaking further, the governor said; “What the All Progressives Congress (APC) spin-doctors and their collaborators in the Presidency are doing is simple. It is such that when there is nothing to tell the people as per the rising Boko Haram attacks, Dollar and other foreign currencies exchange rates, petrol pump price and other seeming failed promises of the APC federal government, they will accuse former President Goodluck Jonathan and his men of corruption, insult Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and make noise about fighting corruption.

“President Buhari and his men should however know that Nigeria of today is different from that of 1983 and the system under which they are operating now is also different. Nigerians are watching and unlike 1983, nothing can prevent them from asking questions, which they are already asking.”

While challenging President Buhari to start the anti-corruption fight from his party, Governor Fayose said Nigerians know those who sponsored President Buhari’s election and are waiting for the President to reveal their sources of income.

“Some of those who sponsored the President’s election have not done any other jobs apart from holding public offices. Yet, they provided private jets and funds with which the President campaigned across the length and breadth of Nigeria. He should let Nigerians know where they got money to buy private jets and the several billions of naira spent on his election.

“Mr President and his men should know that these planned efforts to brand PDP as a party of corrupt people and supress the giant strides of the Jonathan administration won’t work because Nigerians know that APC is peopled with more corrupt people and the President must treat the issue of corruption without looking at political parties.

“No one sits with corruption to fight corruption because as it is today, President Buhari is sitting among corrupt people and he must first extricate himself from the comity of corruption that he is before his anti-corruption stance can be accorded respect.”

Thank God you escape the harmmer.. What citizen of ekiti should realise is that meaningful development migth elude the state in the live of this present administration.. In the last 6months am not sure whether the governor can point to concrete development and the excuse will be hinge on distraction from the so called impeachment.. I won't be suprise now if same govt change his gear toward FG for the remaining three and half year that Abuja is not helping him to develop the state.. Good enough the governor is nursing no second term ambition and the earlier the citizens of his state realise this the better.

Even while we realise, Ekiti people will still punish APC one more time for traumatizing them for so long. If you think being in central party will sway us just get ready for surprises. After wrecking the state finances it will take APC many years to gather any goodwill and public trust again.

Whoever calls Adekunle Fajuyi a brave man is ignorant.

How do you define bravery?

Adekunle Fajuyi was a man who could not protect his own visitor. He died because he was left with no other choice. Forget what his people want us to believe.

How can invaders come to my house, and succeed in killing me in my own territory that they are not familiar with?! The man is another coward. undecided

Shut your stinking mouth, he had choice to abandon his guest and run like the caward Okukwu but chose to die with his visitor. Leaking brain who told you the coup plotters who killed them were not familiar with the terrain? Coup plotters, having known the consequence of their actions won't strike on strange terrain they are no familiar with, blockhead. You can't compare Adekunle with that coward that ran away.

Bigots from the east shouldn't have bitten their tribal dust by attaching Diya's tribe to his action, you want to get your hair burnt so that you can feel the smell of your body. The same Yoruba that produced Diya also produced Adekunle Fajuyi that was killed alongside Gen Ironzi. He could have lived if he chose to abandon Ironzi just the way that coward Ojukwu abandoned over three million people to perish while he ran AWOL but he braved it up by standing with Ironzi in death. That is bravery from a Yoruba man too which can not be found among your people.

Fayose’s Impeachment: Court Cautions Parties Against Subjudice

Abuja, By Kunle Olasanmi

— Apr 16, 2015 | Leave a comment

Justice Ahmed Mohammed of a Federal High Court sitting Abuja on Thursday told parties in the suit filed to stop the impeachment Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State to be mindful of the steps they take since they have subjected themselves before the court in the matter.

The trial judge also cautioned them to steer clear of any action that could cause trouble or chaos in the state.

The court fixed April 29 for the hearing of the suit seeking to stop the All Progressive Congress (APC) members of the Ekiti state House of Assembly from impeaching Governor Ayodele Fayose and his deputy, Kolapo Olusola.

He further stated any party that discover that the other is making moves to forment trouble should bring an application before the court.

The plaintiffs, Speaker of the House of Assembly (described as being occupied by the Peoples Democratic Party factional Speaker, Olugbemi Joseph Dele); Ekiti State House of Assembly, Fayose and Olusola through their counsel Ahmed Raji SAN had approached the court via a motion ex-parte seeking to halt impeachment moves against the governor.

‎At the last adjourned date, the court ordered defendants in the suit, the APC factional Speaker of the House of ‎Assembly, Adewale Omirin, and the Chief Judge of the state, Justice Ayodeji Daramola to appear before it and show cause why the plaintiffs request should not be granted.

During yesterday’s proceedings, the plaintiff’s counsel informed the court that the defendants has not filed any process.

Defendants’ counsel, Terence Venber, told the court that his clients were served last Saturday which was an election day and therefore, are still within time as provided by the rules of court to respond.
In a short ruling, the court noted that since April 11 was an election day, it would be deemed to be a public holiday and the service of the process will take effect from the next working day, from which the three days provided by the court rule will start counting.

It was on that note that court adjourned to enable the defendants file and serve their response.

Apart from Omirin and Justice Daramola, other defendants in the suit are the Inspector General of Police, Mr. Suleiman Abba, and the Independent National Electoral Commission.

‎In the ex-parte application, the plaintiffs had urged the court to grant the interim injunction setting aside the impeachment notice already served on the governor and the deputy and also restraining the defendants from taking any further steps in the impeachment moves.

They also argued that the act by Omirin to issue an impeachment notice and serve same on the governor and the deputy governor as Speaker of the House of Assembly amounted to ‎impersonating the incumbent Speaker.

The plaintiffs also urged the court to grant the prayers and make the interim injunctions to subsist pending the determination of their motion on notice for interlocutory injunctions seeking the same set of prayers.

Raji urged the court to grant the prayers “in the interest of justice, public order, peace and safety of the people of the state”.

‎However, the judge in his ruling ordered the parties to appear in court to convince the court why the plaintiffs’ prayers for interim injunction should not be granted.

According to the judge, “The order is hereby made directing the 1st to 4th defendants (Omirin, IGP, INEC and Ekiti CJ), ‎to appear before this court on April 16, 2015 and show cause why the interim order sought by the plaintiffs via an ex parte motion dated April 7, 2015 should not be made by this court.”

‎The court also granted leave to serve Omirin and Justice Daramola, who reside in Ekiti State, outside jurisdiction.

It also ordered that Omirin and the Ekiti State Chief Judge be served through advertisement in a national newspaper.

It also made a separate order that the Chief Judge be served with processes of court through the office of the Chief Registrar of of the Ekiti State High Court.

In the main suit, marked FHC/ABJ/CS/302/2015, ‎the plaintiffs are seeking nine prayers among which is “an order setting aside the purported notice of impeachment and all steps taken by the 1st defendant (Omirin) with other errant members of the 2nd plaintiff (Ekiti State House of Assembly) in relation to the purported issuance and service of the said notice of impeachment for the purpose of commencing and concluding the impeachment proceedings against Peter Ayodele Fayose and Dr. Olusola Kolapo, except and until there is absolute compliance with provisions of section 36(1) and section 188(1), (2), (3) and (4) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended).”

They also want an order prohibiting the 1st defendant (Omirin) and other errant members of the 2nd plaintiff (Ekiti State House of Assembly) from further taking any step, or engaging in unlawful activities relating to the impeachment of Peter Ayodele Fayose and Dr. Olusola Kolapo, except and until there is absolute compliance with provisions of section 36(1) and section 188(1), (2), (3) and (4) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended).

In addition, the plaintiffs want an order prohibiting the Chief Judge of Ekiti State from taking any step or action in relation to the request of the 1st defendant (Omirin) for the purpose of appointing a panel of seven persons to investigate and purported allegations of gros misconduct against Peter Ayodele Fayose and Dr. Olusola Kolapo, except and until there is absolute compliance with provisions of section 36(1) and section 188(1), (2), (3) and (4) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended.

I agree - but its a shame we've had to put civilians in danger like this - afterwards they probably wont even be thanked by the Nigerian Govt.

Nothing shameful here brother,that is what operates the world over. From Iraq,Libya ,Syria to Afghanistan we have civilians in war fronts fighting alongside trained soldiers. In fact we should thank the youths that render this dangerous selfless service to the nation. If not for them,maybe able bodied youths would have been dragged from their rooms to go and fight the way it happen during civil war. It is nothing new,I just hope those guys can be absorbed into NA. Kudos to them.
