The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State has said Governor Ayo Fayose lacks the moral rectitude to query the right of its presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari, to occupy the nation’s highest office.
The party, in its reaction to Fayose’s description of Buhari as a liar, said the governor’s action gave him away as an “unconscionable character who ought to hide his head in shame for activities that marked him as a dishonest fellow”.
The APC Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatubosun, in a statement yesterday described Fayose as “the most integrity-challenged governor in Nigeria”, saying the Ekiti chief executive is not competent to impugn on Buhari’s integrity and character.
Olatubosun said Fayose’s first stint as governor witnessed incidences of violence, attacks and murder attempts on the lives of many Ekiti citizens and cases of fraud that are still in the courts.
He said the governor’s “second coming” has been marred by attacks on courts, judges, lawyers, judiciary staff, emasculation of the legislative arm and acts of impunity.
Olatubosun said: “Lying is a question of integrity. A liar does not have integrity. Lying leads to deceit, stealing, conspiracy, murder and other vices.
“Buhari has never and would never be associated with any of these vices, same cannot be said of Fayose.
“His latest lie is the denial of his involvement in the Ekitigate scandal.
“Fayose ‘led’ thugs to attack the judges and tear court records in the chief judge’s office last year.
“On May 29, 2005, he led thugs to attack the Alliance for Democracy (AD) rally at Mugbagba in Ado-Ekiti.
“Chiefs Ojo Falegan and Segun Oni nearly died of teargas fumes after they were beaten by government agents.
“Taiye Fasuba, the Chairman of Ado-Local Government, was illegally removed after he refused to surrender council funds for a fraudulent poultry project.
“The late Atta of Ayede-Ekiti, Oba Adeleye Orisagbemi, was arrested for his alleged refusal to support Fayose.
“The Elekole of Ikole-Ekiti, Oba Adetunla Adeleye, was forcefully dragged out of his car for his alleged refusal to support the governor.”
Olatubosun said only an “integrity-challenged” man could have all these “vices” around his neck and still seek leadership position or criticise leaders with impeccable records.
He advised Fayose to start thinking of how to plan a life after paying for his alleged crimes, noting that Buhari’s presidency was a reality that could not be stopped by Fayose’s tantrums.
