Insecurity in Ekiti: PDP accuses Fayemi of being in accord with bandits

The People’s Democratic Party in Ekiti State has reiterated its call on the State Governor, Dr Kayode Fayemi, to pay attention to the invasion of the state by armed bandits, saying “it appears that the governor has an accord with the bandits who are daily, killing and kidnapping the people, especially on roads leading to his hometown, Isan Ekiti.”

According to a statement on Saturday by the State Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Raphael Adeyanju, the party said “time has come for stakeholders in the State to confront Governor Fayemi and ask him whether or not he has understanding with these marauding bandits not to touch them.” It was on that same road that a Commissioner in Governor Fayemi’s government, Olabode Folorunso, and a woman were abducted and a councillor in Ilejemeje Local Government killed in April, last year.

This week too, a former Chairman of the National Union of Roads Transport Workers, Clement Adekola, was attacked by Fulani kidnappers along Ikere Ekiti – Igbara-Odo road. He escaped narrowly, with his vehicle riddled with bullets.
