Fayemi To Fayose, Your ‘Kangaroo’ Probe Panel Can’t Do Nothing

Kayode Fayemi, former Ekiti State governor and current Mines and Steel Minister, has told his successor that the inauguration of a judicial commission to probe his tenure in the state will yield no result.

Feyemi said this in a statement on Monday by his media aide, Yinka Oyebode.

The minister claimed that Governor Fayose’s move to probe him is unlawful as the matter is already before a court of competent jurisdiction.

Fayemi further said the governor’s decision to go ahead with the probe in spite of a pending court case shows his level of desperation.

“It is obvious, Governor Fayose is desperate to probe the administration of his predecessor in office, Dr Kayode Fayemi, for personal vendetta,” the statement read.

“Yet, he is advised to be guided by the rule of law and decency in this wild goose chase.

“The governor and members of the panel are reminded that the two cases involving the house of assembly, its leadership and top officials of the present administration are still pending In an Abuja high court and a federal high court in Ado, thus making it an act of illegality for another panel to look into the matter.

“The governor is advised to concentrate on the serious task of governance and refrain from shadow chasing which the current pursuit of personal vendetta through a kangaroo committee clearly represents,” the statement read.
