A report had accused nine serving governors of “squandering millions of naira on private jets” to move around the country for their presidential bids.

He said the governor only uses a private jet in peculiar situations, and that the cost is supported by friends.“The unduly generalised report, titled; ‘Wike, Fayemi, Tambuwal, six other governors squander millions on private jets,’ is not only inaccurate and misleading, it is bereft of facts, which made it fall short of the journalistic standard for which the Daily Trust is known,” the statement reads.

“We also consider it poor journalistic work for the newspaper to assume that all the trips to the states mentioned in the report were via private jets.“For the avoidance of doubt, while it is correct that Governor Fayemi occasionally uses private jets to get to some difficult to reach places and when commercial flights disappoint, alternative arrangements are made for such trips, more often than not supported by friends.

“While we do not dispute the role of the media to inform the public, we are of the opinion that such should be done with due regard for fairness and accuracy of information.

kfayemi Nothing for you everybody on be president,

kfayemi Hope you're not owing while using private for presidential trips

kfayemi Yes, but royalty and revenue from his father landed properties and cocoa farms he has sold for the ambition.

kfayemi Where did he now get the money. Accumulated inflate disbursement fund. Right?

kfayemi Too much grammar.... Sir you've been in the system since the June 12, what difference have you made other than working as one of Tinubu's soldier?

kfayemi Talobi lejo. Mr. Moneybags, Mr. Polybag.

After 8 years as governor of a state nothing to show but now he’s “canvasses for proper land document acquisition”. A serious person would have done this two weeks in office.
