A traditional ruler in Ekiti State, Oba Adebanji Alabi of Ilawe-Ekiti, has cautioned Nigerian politicians to desist from acts of blackmail and foul play in their political activities.

Oba Alabi, in a statement he issued on Friday in Ado-Ekiti by his Media Adviser, Chief Ajibade Olubunmi, particularly cautioned politicians against blackmailing their counterparts aspiring for political positions, including the Presidency.

The News Agency of Nigeria reports that the caution came few days after a statement credited to Mr Yinka Oyebode, the Chief Press Secretary to Kayode Fayemi, accused some politicians of plotting to defame and discredit the state governor through false publications. Alabi, the Alawe of Ilawe-Ekiti , noted that though Fayemi had not given any indication of contesting for any position after his current term of office as the Governor of Ekiti expires in October , he is well qualified to take a shot at the highest political office in the country.

“Fayemi is not only a two- term Governor of Ekiti, he is the Chairman of the Nigerian Governors Forum whose performance has been described by his colleagues as excellent.
