APC Suspends Ekiti State Governor, Kayode Fayemi For anti-party activities, Supporting PDP Obaseki
The leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Ekiti state faction has suspended the Governor of the state, Kayode Fayemi.
A statement released by the party led by Senator Tony Adeniyi, said the governor was suspended due to “his numerous anti-party activities, especially his role in the recently concluded governorship election in Edo State which is contrary to the provisions of Article 21 (A) (ii) of the APC Constitution.”
According to the statement, five days before the Edo Election, Gov Fayemi hosted PDP big wig, Femi Fani- Kayode in the government house in Ado Ekiti, and planned a coup against Edo APC.
The statement in part,
That Dr. Kayode Fayemi, the Executive Governor of Ekiti State is hereby suspended from the Party in view of his numerous anti-party activities especially his role in the recent concluded governorship election in Edo State which is contrary to the provisions of Article 21 (A) (ii) of the APC Constitution.For five days prior to the Edo elections, Gov Fayemi hosted PDP big wig Mr. Femi Fani- Kayode in the government house in Ado Ekiti in the run-up to the Edo elections. It was here they perfected the coup against our party in Edo State. This is the same Fani-Kayode who daily abuses President Muhammadu Buhari, Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, the APC as a party as well a vital section of our country. We have evidence of that meeting.Fani-Kayode specifically said he has gone on his tour as part of an effort between him and Fayemi to build a cross-party alliance and few hours after leaving Ekiti he fired a shot at Asiwaju Tinubu.
He was also accused of playing a role in the gubernatorial election in Oyo State and supported the PDP candidate against the APC candidate.
We also recall his role in the gubernatorial election in Oyo State where he supported the PDP candidate to defeat the APC candidate. A second tranche of money he sent to Gov Makinde in the election was intercepted by soldiers. The courier Mr Ayo Adegbite, his Chief Protocol Officer was arrested and he immediately disowned and announced his sack. Mr. Adegbite remains his aide till date.
