The Governor of Ekiti State, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has again
dismissed the impeachment notice allegedly posted online by the All
Progressives Congress (APC).
While speaking at an audience participatory programme, ‘Meet Your
Governor’ on Monday, Governor Fayose, said that those plotting his
impeachment were the same enemies of Ekiti State that plotted his exit
from office in 2006.
He said: “Nobody served me any impeachment notice. I only saw the
notice online like every other person. I’m like Israel that is in the
midst of enemies but will always prevail. Whoever wants to remove me
will first have to impeach God”.
Fayose added that the APC people were trying to get at him because he
wholeheartedly supported President Goodluck Jonathan’s re-election bid.
“Let me say it again, I have not been served any impeachment notice.
The House of Assembly is also on recess and Dr Adewale Omirin is not the
speaker of the State House of Assembly.’
“Omirin is in court, challenging his impeachment and he can’t be
challenging his impeachment in court and at the same time laying claim
to being Speaker,” he said.
While urging the APC to accept defeat, as done by President Goodluck
Jonathan, Governor Fayose said: “By the power of God, they lost 16 – 0
on June 21, 2014, they lost 16 – 0 again on March 28, they will lose 26 –
0 on Saturday, April 11″.
Governor Fayose had earlier dismissed the impeachment plot,
saying “the script being acted by the APC is a failed one because no
one, no matter how highly placed he is, would be allowed to test the
will of Ekiti people”.
