All the sixteen local government areas chairmen of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ekiti state have warned the Federal government of the consequences of its intimidation of the governor of the state, Dr Ayo Fayose, saying that their loyalty B the governor can not be shaking by the intimidation.
In a communique signed by Hon Clement Olufemi Bamisile, Idowu Akinbode and Isreal Ogundele, chairman, secretary and public relations officer respectively of the forum of the chairmen of PDP local government areas in Ekiti State, a vote of confidence was passed on the governor with emphasis that no amount of harassments or persecution can make them review their loyalty to the state governor.
The PDP chairmen described the persecution of Governor Fayose as a visible vindictiveness on the part of the federal government who has seen the governor as their enemy because he has become the major voice of the opposition in Nigeria.
They maintained that the freezing of the private account of the governor has demonstrated the federal government desperation to cow him in order not to criticise all the misgovernance of President Muhammadu Buhari , ranging from disrespect for the rule of law to arbitrary trample on the rights of citizens.
The chairmen noted that a democracy without a robust opposition can not thrive but the present federal government being run by the All Progressive Congress have clearly shown that it doesn't want that but Nigerians Will not succumb to this, adding that anything sort of this can only result to anarchy.
The chairmen therefore urge the Governor Fayose to continue to lead the opposition in the country saying that his rewards will be soon than later.
