The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ekiti State has responded to Governor Ayodele Fayose’s allegations in his press conference in Lagos purporting that
APC was planning to illegally use the Supreme Court to upturn his mandate in favour of the party, according to the Nation.
The party accused the governor of blackmail, saying his fraudulent and pre-emptive tactics will not stop justice from taking its course in the resolution of the biggest electoral fraud in the history of Nigeria.
Publicity Secretary of APC, Taiwo Olatunbosun, said in a statement that Fayose’s alleged fraudulent attempt to draw the support of the international community to poll fraud was an impish attempt to legitimise fraud, stressing that the same international community had since realized that world leaders were also victims of Fayose and Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP’s) fraud by misleading them in Fayose’s electoral victory in Ekiti State.
“Even though the international community declared that Ekiti poll that produced Fayose was fair, the same world leaders have since changed their position after listening to Ekiti poll fraud tape as secretly recorded by Captain Sagir Koli detailing how Fayose and PDP leaders rigged the election, including Fayose himself talking in the tape on how he collected INEC soft copies and got them printed to win the election,” Olatunbosun explained.
He added that the governor was running away from his shadow after failed bids to beg President Muhammadu Buhari who he abuses daily.
