Ekiti Speaker Blasts Gov. Fayose

Hon. Dele OlugbemiEkiti State PDP crisis seems to be getting worse and the party is now a house divided against itself in the state. The ex-speaker of the State House of Assembly, Hon. Dele Olugbemi took Governor Ayodele Fayose to the cleaners and rejected an appointment given to him by the governor recently. Hear him;

“I’m a member of the appointment committee. I was shocked to hear my name announced on the radio as being appointment as a member of the commission without my knowledge. The governor’s action was against the ethos of democracy and he is simply running a one-man show. Since he came into office, he has been operating without regards to the party. I gave so much to defend his mandate but he has shown me no respect at all. I was still wondering about the appointment when he sent a message to me that some people were interested in replacing me in case I reject the offer. Since he had decided to preempt my decision, I did not find it difficult to reject the appointment. All I did to defend him during the impeachment plot was to prevent the state from plunging into chaos so I have no regret”.
