The 19 All Progressives Congress lawmakers in Ekiti State, have said Governor Ayodele Fayose, should be blamed for the incessant activities of criminals in the state.
The lawmakers said his behaviour encouraged crimes to thrive in the state, urging the governor to stop blaming others.
This is as transport unions in Ekiti State warned the APC lawmakers and their sponsors against destabilising the state, saying they were monitoring their movement between now and the end of their tenure.
They gave the warning in a joint statement issued in Ado-Ekiti on Thursday and signed by the Chairman, Road Transport Employers Association, Comrade Samuel Agbede; Chairman, National Unions of Road Transport Workers, Comrade Clement Adekola, and Chairman, Pick-Up and Lorry Drivers Association, Atowoju Oluwatosin.
The unions said they were aware of the meeting held by eight of the APC lawmakers with a former president, Wednesday night and the one they had scheduled for Oshogbo, Osun State on Thursday as well as the two dates they had picked to invade Ekiti.
“All efforts by the APC lawmakers and their sponsors to throw Ekiti State into chaos will be resisted. We are following every of their moves and whatever funny move they make between now and the end of their tenure will be resisted.
“We have voted and elected Peter Ayodele Fayose as our governor and we wish to assure whichever security agents they are enlisting to come and destabilise Ekiti State that we are ready for them.
“We, the commercial drivers see the APC lawmakers as recalcitrant. Rejecting peace efforts by Ekiti elders, traditional rulers and others is insulting.
“As of today, there is a court order that all parties in the impeachment saga should maintain status quo and the suit will come up again on May 21. If the National Assembly could obey court orders, how much more a State House of Assembly.”
Fayose in a statement by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, had accused the lawmakers of frustrating security measures put in place to stem criminal activities.
But the lawmakers in a statement by Speaker Adewale Omirin’s Special Adviser on Media, Wole Olujobi, on Thursday maintained that the governor was the one encouraging crimes to thrive through unbecoming conduct in the running of government since assumption of office.
