Call has gone to the people of Ekiti state to beware of some unscrupulous people attacking innocent residents of the state claiming they were sent by the governor, Peter Ayodele Fayose.
The governor made the call through a statement released yesterday by his special adviser on public communication and new media, Lere Olayinka.
He also denied sponsoring an attack against an indigene of the state, Prince Bunmi Ademolaju who was reportedly attacked at a popular hotel in Ado-Ekiti on Friday by some people claiming to be Governor Fayose’s boys.
“We have it on good authority that the plot of these unscrupulous elements is to go about attacking notable indigenes of Ekiti State and claiming that they were sent by Governor Fayose.
“This new trend, we believe is another plot by those who have lost every war they wagged against Governor Fayose to discredit the governor, and the public is hereby placed on alert.
“By announcing that they were Governor Fayose’s boys, the motive of the criminals has no doubt been exposed, and it cannot be anything other than to set the people against the governor” the statement reads.
Olayinka said the governor does not harbour criminals ” He does not have boys anywhere, not to talk of sending them to attack innocent residents of Ekiti State.” the statement reads.
Olayinka is optimistic that the culprits attacking or assaulting residents of the state in the name of “Governor Fayose’s Boys” would be apprehended and handed over to law enforcement agents for appropriate action.
He urged Ekiti people and the law enforcement agents to take note of this new trend of criminality believed to be orchestrated by those whose only interest is to make Ekiti state impossible just because they lost power.
