A socio-political group, Reformed Agenda Advancing Governance (RAFAG) has berated the All Progressive Congress members of the Ekiti State House of Assembly led by Dr Adewale Omirin on their attempt to throw the state into confusion.
This was contained in a press release by the group which was made available to the press in Ado Ekiti on Wednesday.
The group stated that its an aberration for Dr Omirin who is already challenging his impeachment in court to want to forcibly take over the leadership of the House, saying that its against all known tenets of democracy and rule of law.
RAFAG however advised the former speaker and his bakers outside the state to have a rethink of their evil plans to cause mayhem and possibly attempt to forcefully remove the Governor of the state, Mr Ayodele Fayose who was overwhelmingly voted into office by the people of the state in June 2014.
The group also accused the APC legislators of abdicating their legislative duties and responsibility while the immediate past administration plundered the economy and common wealth of Ekiti State through phony loans and credit facilities which had mortgaged the future of the state.
“Were they not there when Fayemi the immediate past Governor took loans and bonds that will commit Ekiti State to financial institutions till 2020 ? Where was Dr Omirin and the other APC legislators when all those irrevocable standing payment order under which sizable chunk of the state allocation was committed to numerous financial institutions under Fayemi’s administration?”
The group further asked ” where was Omirin and APC when staff salaries and bonuses and deductions of workers and pension arrears of retired workers were left unpaid by the Fayemi’s administration”
RAFAG then called on the people of the state to come out enmasse on Saturday 11th April to vote for the House of Assembly candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party to forestall a re-occurrence of the present crisis engineered by the unpatriotic legislators and their backers outside the state.
