APC HAVE THE RIGHT TO BRING YOU TO JUSTICE FOR ELECTION INFRACTION: APC to Fayose

Ex-Gov Fayemi and Gov. fayose

The All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State has said that it has the right to seek justice in court over the alleged subversion of the Nigerian Constitution and Electoral
Act during the June 21 , 2014 governorship election in the state .

The APC urged Governor Ayodele Fayose to prepare to face justice and defend himself against his allegation that his predecessor , Dr . Kayode Fayemi , was plotting to use the judiciary to remove him from office .

Fayose had at a press briefing in Ado Ekiti on Monday accused Fayemi of plotting to manipulate Supreme Court Justices to remove him from office .

The governor said the plot followed his earlier allegation that the Minister of Mines and Steel Development , alongside some leaders of the APC in Ekiti and Abuja , were seeking to return to power by enlisting a section of the judiciary to revisit the 2014 governorship election in the state .

The state APC Deputy Chairman , Mrs. Kemisola Olaleye, who spoke at a rally organised by the party in Ado Ekiti Local Government on Tuesday , said Fayose was being haunted by the crimes he allegedly committed against the constitution .

Describing the APC as “ the most popular party in the state waiting to chase Fayose out of power ”, she promised a level playing field for all aspirants jostling for the 2018 governorship ticket
Olaleye said , “ Fayose has been saying that he is about to be removed from office and we in the APC are saying a resounding amen to his prayer . We are taking over power from him and we are determined to chase him out of office . He is afraid of his own shadow .

“ If he likes, let him call thousands of press conferences . Ekiti people are tired of his government , civil servants , artisans, market women , youths , students , all of them are tired and they are waiting for the APC to give them better life . ”

The state APC Publicity Secretary , Taiwo Olatunbosun, said no amount of blackmail and propaganda by the governor would dissuade the party from seeking justice against the alleged use of military and other instruments of coercion to rig the 2014 poll.

Olatunbosun said , “ Fayose is jittery and he is being haunted by his past as regards to the 2014 election, which he knows was manipulated through the muzzling of civic power of the people, using military apparatus and enemies of democracy to foist himself on Ekiti people. ”
