Special Assistant to the Ekiti State Governor on Public
Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka has told the factional
Speaker of the Ekiti State House of Assembly, Dr Adewale Omirin and his
All Progressives Congress (APC) lawmakers to desist from their voyage of
self-destruction, saying; “fighting against Governor Ayodele Fayose is
like fighting against the wind.”
The governor’s aide, who was
reacting to claim by the APC lawmakers that there was plan by Governor
Fayose and himself to kidnap them and members of their families, added
that; “the APC lawmakers must have concluded plans to kidnap themselves
or their own children and blame it on the governor.”
He said;
“Having reached a dead and confused end in their Governor Fayose’s
impeachment project, the APC lawmakers might have concluded arrangements
to use phoney kidnap of themselves and some of their children to
heighten tension in the State.”
Olayinka, who called on security agencies in the country and all
Nigerians to be mindful of this plot by the APC, noted that; “Between
2008 and 2010, these same elements in the APC used organised armed
robbery and kidnapping to discredit the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)
government government of Engr Segun Oni.
“Charles Ojo Ovie, the
head of the terror gang used to perpetrate criminal acts, including
murder of three officers of the State Anti Robbery Squad and kidnap of
the Attah of Aiyede Ekiti, Oba Adeleye Orisagbemi; Provost of the
College of Education, Ikere Ekiti, among others was linked with
chieftains of the APC.
“Also,
their ring leader, Senator Babafemi Ojudu set fire on a small hut in
front of his house along Iworoko road, Ado Ekiti and went to town,
claiming that Engr Segun Oni sent thugs to raze down his whole house.
“Therefore,
if they are alleging plot to kidnap them and members of their families
now, Nigerians should know that they are up to something sinister and
that could be kidnapping themselves or members of their families by
themselves and blaming it on Governor Fayose so as to regain their lost
public sympathy and discredit the governor.”
Speaking further, the governor’s aide wondered why using the Facebook
to inform the public on the sinister movements and plots of the APC
lawmakers should amount to threat to kidnap them.
He said; “Omirin
and his co-jesters should rather seek forgiveness from God and Ekiti
people who now see them as enemies of the State.
“When you shunned
peace meeting called by Ekiti elders and attended by such personalities
like Aare Afe Babalola (SAN), Chief Ayo Ogunlade, Chief Deji Faduan, Dr
Kunle Olajide and others, you are simply saying that Ekiti and its
people do not mean anything to you.
“When you claimed on Wednesday
that Governor Fayose planned to arrest you and three days after, you
claimed that the same governor planned to kidnap you, what you are
simply demonstrating is how confused you have become and the state at
which your mind has demented. “Omirin and his APC lawmakers should therefore desist from fighting
against the wind because when you engage in a fight against the wind,
you fight from all directions, your defeat will come from all directions
and it will be total and fatal”.
