ACN Faults Fayose’s Assassination Attempt Claim

[Shola Sholaz]

Action Congress of Nigeria, ACN, has raised a poser over the claim by the former governor of the state,Mr. Ayo Fayose that his vehicle was attacked last week by a group of suspected political thugs along Ado Ekiti -Afao Road.
.
The party also called on Ekiti State police command to invite the former governor to explain the veracity or otherwise of his claim.
.
The former governor, through a press statement by his campaign organisation gave detail of how the alleged attack was carried out.
.
The ACN, however, faulted Fayose's claim, describing it as suspicious. The party maintained that the present administration in the state had invested hugely in security, thereby making the state one of the safest in the country. It therefore called on the police authorities in the state to invite Mr. Fayose to substantiate the assassination claims with a view to allowing them carry out a proper investigation into the matter.
