| Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose |
The party also faulted the Governor for refusing to pay pensioners in the state. APC said it was unfortunate that despite the N90bn allocation received by the state, Fayose could not pay off all the outstanding salaries in the state.
The State Publicity Secretary of APC, Taiwo Olatunbosun, in a statement on Thursday said theparty was shocked that Fayose who claimed to be friend of workers could receive such amount but chose to pay just one month.
He said, “We have said times and again that Governor Fayose has an agenda different from offering better life for the people of Ekiti State.
“Apart from the recent revelations by the EFCC onhow state’s funds are being misapplied for alleged personal use of the governor as revealed in the alleged diversion of MDG/local governmentfunds, Fayose has demonstrated again that he is only in government to make himself comfortable while the rest of Ekiti people suffer.
“Apart from demonstrating this by paying just onemonth arrears, his refusal to pay dying pensioners who spent their productive years in the service of the state is a callous neglect of the elderly, who the governor deceived with mouth-watering promises, including prompt payment of pensions, during campaign.”
