While stating that six workers in the state were recently reported dead over their inability to pay their medical bills, the party held that the sad development would not have happened if Fayose had made the welfare of workers a priority of his administration as promised during the campaign.
The party, in a statement by the Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatunbosun, expressed sadness that the governor who brands himself the friend of workers to justify and blame his inability to pay five months salaries owed the state civil servants on the state debts profile.
Accusing the state governor of employing misinformation and deceits to manipulate the people, Olatunbosun said all the points raised in his allegations against Dr Kayode Fayemi were not new, arguing that, that would not vitiate workers’ demand for their wages after collecting 20 months federal allocations, including local government allocations and N9.6billion bailout cash.
The statement reads, “We have read time and again all the allegations the governor raised through his media aide and we have not found any merit that can mitigate the feeling among Ekiti people that Governor Fayose has a clear agenda to enrich himself while Ekiti people suffer.
“With all the allegations that the governor raised through his media aide, can he say he did not collect 20 months federal allocations, including N9.6billion bailout cash, refunds on federal roads, Ecological Fund, micro credit cash, banks’ community social responsibility charges, suffocating taxes and the fresh N21.6billion loan the governor took that cannot be traced to any government’s account?
“Again, with all the manipulation of figures, do Fayose’s lies change the DMO’s figure putting Ekiti State’s debts at N18billion under Fayemi’s administration?,” the statement asked. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
