Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has counseled President Muhammadu Buhari not to allow politicians hijack the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, for their selfish interests.
Fayose gave this counsel in Ado Ekiti on Wednesday while administering oaths on 10 new commissioners in the state, with a promise to give 25 percent to the illiterates in his further appointments.
According to him, “The illiterates will get 25 percent because it is from them we get the votes. Though they may not have the certificates, but there is nothing wrong with us keeping them in one board for them to have recognition”.
The governor also congratulated the former Aviation Minister and Director General of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Council, Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode, on his victory in the court of law over the corruption cases instituted against him by EFCC.
“I want to congratulate my friend and brother, Femi Fani-Kayode, a dogged fighter like me for His acquittal by the court today”. “I want to advise President Buhari not to allow politicians to hijack the graft war because if our motive is to fight personality instead of the corrupt people, then you will destroy institutions and rubbish the whole thing. “The war should not be partisan or be fought in the face of vendetta or act of vindictiveness”, he said.
