Ekiti Guber Election: Fayemi, Fayose Disagree Over Alleged Plot To Attack Segun Oni’s Supporters

The Kayode Fayemi Campaign Office says it has uncovered a clandestine plan by Governor Ayodele Fayose and the People’s Democratic Party to carry out coordinated attacks on supporters and associates of former Governor Segun Oni.

KFCO said the plot was to use thugs who would pretend to be working for the Minister of Mines and Steel Development and Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Kayode Fayemi.

According to the organisation, the plan was designed by Fayose as part of the efforts to cause disharmony among the two former governors of the state as well as their supporters.

According to information, the assailants would carry out the dastardly act, wearing JKF branded materials and making insinuations that would establish a possible link to the Fayemi political camp.

“Security agencies in the state are hereby alerted to this clandestine move by the PDP goons aimed at introducing violent dimension to the politics of the state ahead of the July 14 governorship election.

“We urge all supporters and members of APC to remain vigilant, shun any form of violence during this electioneering period and report any act of intimidation to the law enforcement agencies.”

KFCO reiterated the position of the APC leadership that all members of the party should unite and work together for the success of the APC in the coming elections.

But reacting, Fayose said the allegation “is false and should be ignored.”

The Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, who reacted on behalf of his boss said, “What is the business of Fayose with the APC family. Fayose does not harbour thugs.

“The issue on the ground is purely about frosty relationship between Fayemi and Oni which has nothing to do with Fayose. Let them go and settle it and leave Fayose out of it.

“Segun Oni had identified boys of Fayemi molesting his supporters and even threatened to quit the party should it continue. Why would Fayemi now want to leave the substance and chase the shadow instead of him calling his boys to order and not to turn Ekiti into a theatre of war?
