“Fayose is only afraid of facing justice when he loses immunity” – Gov Oni

The former Ekiti state governor Kayode Fayemi has denied any involvement in the problems his successor is facing.

Fayose had earlier accused the duo of being behind a plan to impeach him.

The governor, in a statement said, plans have been concluded to execute a conspiracy against him.

He also petitioned the chief justice to investigate a conspiracy between the duo and some judges.

“This time, the plotters of this judicial coup-de-tat plan to procure the services of a compromised judge to get self-serving jankara and kangaroo judgment with the intention of having the Supreme Court reverse itself on the June 2014 Ekiti election, ” Fayose had said.

But denying the allegation, Fayemi said Fayose’s allegations are irresponsible and baseless.

Fayemi’s spokesperson Yinka Oyebode in a statement said: “And one is not surprised at this, because under Fayose, falsehood has been elevated to the level of statecraft, sustained by machinery of state.”

Also Oni’s media aide Ayo Akinyemi said: “Fayose himself knows that no judiciary can remove him now because he enjoys immunity until the expiration of his tenure on October 15, 2018. He can only be investigated, so what is Fayose talking about?”

Oni said the governor is only afraid of facing the justice when he loses his immunity as a governor.
