EKITI
State Governor, Ayodele Fayose has been lambasted by a chieftain of All Progressives
Congress (APC) , Otunba Bisi Aloba, over the N5.7 billion Flyover project
launched by his administration describing it as a ploy to loot the state
resources.
Aloba reportedly said
that the project and that of a new airport recently stopped by a court have no
bearing on the welfare of the people in a state where workers are owed four
months salaries at the moment and concluded that the governor has gross
administrative deficiencies adding that the project is as an attempts to further
impoverish the people.
“It
was disheartening that a governor could go to the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN)
to borrow N10billion to build “white elephant projects. Tell me, what traffic
logjam has been witnessed in Fajuyi Park to Ojumose junction to warrant a
flyover?
“This
is a governor who owes four months workers’ salaries and rather than pay
workers, he intends to build a flyover, so that there will be enough to divert.
The suffering of our people has been compounded by Fayose’s actions and
inactions because he could not fit easily into the running of a 21st Century
government.
“Ekiti
people have rejected these projects and any attempt to make the workers suffer
will be resisted, because Ekiti is purely a civil service state. Ekiti people
have not forgotten how he castigated Fayemi for building a governor’s lodge on
Ayoba Hill. He said it has no relevance on the lives of an average Ekiti man.
What relevance would these projects have on the people?” Aloba queried.
