Governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ekiti State, Mr. Ayo Fayose, has accused the All Progressives Congress of plotting to implicate him in a contrived murder case.
He alleged that the APC had last Monday met in Osogbo, Osun State, where it concluded to kill an innocent citizen and dump the corpse in the state.
Addressing journalists in Ado-Ekiti on Tuesday, the Director General of the Ayo Fayose Campaign Organization, Chief Dipo Anisulowo, said the plot of the APC was to label the PDP and his candidate as being responsible for the murder.
“They deliberately wanted to kill the innocent person and clean the blood with customised vests or T-Shirts of Ayo Fayose and dump the vests or T-Shirts and the weapon used in a conscious area, a few kilometers away from the scene of the crime to justify their nefarious plans.
“The APC leaders have also concluded arrangement with some already compromised and corrupt police officers who have agreed to collect money and help them with spurious investigations thereafter,” Anisulowo alleged.
AFCO urged the security agencies and the people of the state to prevail on Governor Kayode Fayemi and the APC to stop the alleged ‘plans’.
He said, “The PDP and its candidate (Fayose) cannot and will not kill any Nigerian for the sake of looking for power. We are therefore not going to fold our arms and allow these propagandists and wicked would to rope us into another orgy of violence.”
But the Kayode Fayemi Campaign Organisation in a counter-allegation accused Fayose of plotting “to re-enact imprints of blood-letting and murder.”
In a statement issued on Tuesday, KFCO’s spokesperson, Mr. Dimeji Daniels, described Fayose’s allegation against APC as “a foul cry aimed at diverting attention and shifting the blame for his planned chaos and other heinous crimes he plans to assign.
“Mr Fayose plans to shift the campaign from the realm of ideas to the ring of violence, killings and murder. The PDP and its candidate have lost out in the culture of debate and tradition of decent politics that are the hallmark of the APC.
“Mr. Fayose has been visiting brothels and red lights across the state where he hopes to recruit the dregs of the society for his planned attacks on the people of the State.”
Citing the killings of Bola Ige, Harry Marshal and Dokibo Amasiori, he argued that the “PDP that controls the security operatives has failed to find the killers.”
Daniels, who said Fayose will be held responsible for any violence or killings that might take place in the state recalled that Mr. Tunde Omojola and Dr. Ayo Daramola were murdered while Aare Afe Babalola faced death threats at a time Fayose was the governor of the state
“We can see that Mr. Fayose is being hunted by his past. He is raising alarm so that when he perpetrates his evil deeds, no one will suspect him.
“We have had our peace in this important and historic state. There was no violence. Freedom, justice and peaceful coexistence remain our companion until Mr. Fayose came into the scene when he emerged as the PDP gubernatorial candidate,” he added.
