TVC E. The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the freezing of the personal account of Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State as unlawful, undemocratic,oppressive and has called on the Economic and Financial Crimes to unfreeze the accounts.
In a statement by Prince Dayo Adeyeye, the head of Publicity of the party (PDP),Adeyeye stated “This government is all out to silence any voice of the opposition.” He noted that the former spokesman of the party, Chief Olisa Metuh, is being prosecuted by the EFCC for receiving campaign funds and since his arrest by the anti-graft agency, Chief Metuh could not challenge the APC government on policy issues until he left office.
“Nigerians will also recall that one of the known opposition voice apart from some individuals and governors of our Party that has exposed the APC led administration for running the Country aground in the last one year is the former spokesman of the PDP Presidential Campaign Organization, Chief Femi Fani Kayode; and he is now standing trial for receiving campaign funds from the Director of Finance of the Campaign.
It’s now the turn of the Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose who has been consistent in condemning the woes the APC government brought upon Nigerians and for remaining critical of the APC and President Buhari’s administration.”
The Party condemns the freezing of Governor Fayose’s personal account and asked the Economic and Financial Crime Commission, EFCC, to free the bank account immediately saying that the action violates Section 308 of 1999 Constitution as a sitting Governor cannot stand trial until after office.
