Ekiti Guber: Fayose Accuses APC Of Writing Election Results

Governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose has accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of flooding Ekiti hotels with thugs, as part of its plans to at cause problems during the fast approaching election in the state.

The gubernatorial election is set to hold on Saturday, July 14.

According to Fayose, the thugs plan on getting “police cover and will cause mayhem during polls because APC had already written results in nine Local Government areas of Ekiti State.”

Fayose said,”It is with great concern that I want to update the nation and international community that Ekiti is already saturated by thugs of APC which we believe the security agents would cover for during polls.

“Our hotels in Ekiti are jam packed with various thugs who are coming to cause problems at the polling and collation centres. They are going to get police cover and will cause mayhem during polls. Because APC had already written results in nine Local Government areas of Ekiti State.

“We urge the security agents to do everything it can to ensure peaceful election, shooting and intimidating people at collating and voting centres will not augur well with us in this state.

“I want ask and plead with the security agencies to allow Ekiti people to make their choice of next governor in peace. The level of desperation by the APC in Ekiti is second to none. We will not look away and allow our rights to be taken way. I call on Ekiti people to remain resolute and strong, we must follow them bumper to bumper and not allow them to rig the election. The power of the people is greater those of us in power. I call on the Federal Government to disallow any act that can set this state on fire.

“l want to call on the police to check the activities of the thugs before the poll is either canceled or be marred by thugs and violence. In most of the rural areas they intend to strike.

“I want to tell them that this is going to be an uphill task. I urge you Ekiti to remain firm, 99 percent of others coming as security or INEC officials and thugs for the election are not Ekiti people, the next governor is going rlto govern Ekiti, so leave us alone. Don’t bring mayhem to Ekiti.

“The thugs are sponsored by neighbouring governors to win the July 14 poll by all cost. You can only know beginning of war not its ending. We urge all parties that the only thing we want is peace and not violence,” he said.
