Special Assistant to the Ekiti State Governor on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, has described human rights activist and lawyer, Femi Falana (SAN) as a mischievous lawyer, who is always out to defend any position that satisfied his selfish desire.
“Falana is only deceiving the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) on Governor Ayodele Fayose’s matter because of his ambition to contest the Ekiti State Governorship election in 2018,
thinking that he can achieve what he used the EFCC to achieve against Governor Fayose in 2006 ten years after.”
Lere Olayinka, Adviser on New Media to the Governor who reacted to Falana’s support of EFCC freezing of Governor Fayose’s bank account, said it was shameful that a lawyer of Falana’s standing could say that EFCC was empowered to freeze Nigerians bank accounts and secure court orders later.
He said; “Even though this comment coming from Femi Falana ought to have been ignored like we have always done because his hypocrisy has become so legendary that he should no longer be taken seriously by sane minds, it was shameful that Falana, a Senior Associate Nigeria(SAN) could say that EFCC can freeze Nigerians bank accounts and obtain a court order later even when Section 34 of the EFCC Act provided that a court order must be obtained (ex-parte) and made available to the bank manager before a bank account can be frozen.”
