The
All Progressives Congress,APC, in Ekiti has yesterday claimed that the
inability of the state Governor,Ayodele Fayose,to pay workers was causing
untimely death among them.
While
stating that six workers in the state were recently reported dead over their
inability to pay their medical bills, the party held that the sad development
would not have happened if Fayose had made the welfare of workers a priority of
his administration as promised during the campaign.
The
party, in a statement by the Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatunbosun, expressed
sadness that the governor who brands himself the friend of workers to justify
and blame his inability to pay five months salaries owed the state civil
servants on the state debts profile.
The
statement reads, “We have read time and again all the allegations the governor
raised through his media aide and we have not found any merit that can mitigate
the feeling among Ekiti people that Governor Fayose has a clear agenda to
enrich himself while Ekiti people suffer.
“With
all the allegations that the governor raised through his media aide, can he say
he did not collect 20 months federal allocations, including N9.6billion bailout
cash, refunds on federal roads, Ecological Fund, micro credit cash, banks’
community social responsibility charges, suffocating taxes and the fresh
N21.6billion loan the governor took that cannot be traced to any government’s
account?
“Again,
with all the manipulation of figures, do Fayose’s lies change the DMO’s figure
putting Ekiti State’s debts at N18billion under Fayemi’s administration?,” the
statement asked.
