The 19 All Progressives Congress (APC) lawmakers in Ekiti State have accused Governor Ayo Fayose of plotting to abduct them.
The APC lawmakers further alleged that the governor is also planning evil against their families in a bid to stop the impeachment plot against him.
The legislators made the accusations via a statement released on Saturday, May 2, 2015 by Speaker, Adewale Omirin’s Special Adviser on Media, Wole Olujobi.
The statement reads:
“We note the surveillance activities of the governor by the accurate and inaccurate accounts of our movements as posted on the Facebook wall of his aide, Lere Olayinka.”
“We can’t ignore the information by our usually reliable sources about this kidnap plan. The governor is capable of any evil. We have it on good authority that he is on our trail just to arrest some of us so that we don’t have the quorum for his impeachment.”
“The alternative is to kidnap members of our family, particularly our children in their schools, by a faceless gang calling themselves a concerned Ekiti State non-political group to hide their political identity. They are to insist that the lawmakers must drop their impeachment plan or the children will be killed.”
Fayose however denied the allegations calling them the rants of people who are afraid of their own shadows.
The lawmakers earlier shunned a peace meeting convened by elders in the state to end their long-running war with Fayose.
