Governor Ayo Fayose has reacted angrily to the restriction placed on his account, calling out President Muhammadu Buhari, his wife and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Fayose wondered why the anti-graft agency had not gone after Kayode Fayemi, his predecessor, who is now the minister of solid minerals.
He also alleged that the wife of President Muhammadu Buhari was indicted in the Halliburton scandal, claiming that he is in the know of an estate which the president purportedly built in Abuja.
“A lot of petitions were written against former Governor and the EFCC has not asked him a question up till now. The diversion of N850 million fund meant for Ekiti State Universal Basic Education Board is there and nobody is asking Fayemi questions,” the statement read.
“Even the president cannot claim to be an angel. The estate he built in Abuja is known to us. His wife was indicted over the Halliburton Scandal. When that American, Jefferson, was being sentenced, the president’s wife was mentioned as having wired $170,000 to Jefferson. Her name was on page 25 of the sentencing of Jefferson. We can serialize the judgment for people to see and read.
“We will not allow this and we will defend our rights within the law of the land. Those who think they can silence me are mistaken. I am a person who is not perturbed by things like this. Let them wait till 2018 when I will finish my term and I will be the one to go and meet them. I won’t run away and let them investigate the whole world, I have nothing to hide or fear.”
Fayose had earlier raised an alarm that the federal government had concluded the alleged plans to use the anti-graft agency to destabilise Ekiti with the aim of impeaching him.
