Special Assistant to the governor of Ekiti State on Public
Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka has described claim by the
All Progressives Congress (APC) in the State that Governor Ayodele
Fayose was spending the state’s money to prosecute his legal matter
with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), saying “the
allegation is a continuation of the APC’s life of disparaging eminent
Nigerians that are not dancing to the destructive tunes of the party.”
Olayinka, who challenged the APC to publish their facts, added that
“the APC beer parlour jesters in Ekiti must have taken their
lamentation over their loss of power to a psychotic level that
anything will make meaning to them no matter unreasonable.”
He said, “Ekiti State government did not, and will not spend any N22
million on Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN) because the government is not
being ran like the APC government of Dr Kayode Fayemi that plunged the
State into debt.
“The reality is that, those evil men in the APC that won’t even mind
to malign God are seeing Chief Ozekhome as an uncompromising lawyer,
who will not blow hot and cold at the same time. They see Chief
Ozekhome as a lawyer that will not join them to defend their regime of
impunity and for that they have opted to malign him as they have done
to others.
“While we are confident that Chief Ozekhome will take them on
legally, we make bold to say that at no time was (sic) the eminent lawyer
travelled to Ekiti by air, not to talk of chattered flight.”
