“No Matter What You Do, I Will Never Leave PDP”– Fayose Replies EFCC

“@officialEFCC Putting my name on watchlist after receiving notification of my coming is not only political but petty. I’m not among those who are afraid to face tomorrow. Nobody is God.”- Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose

The Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose has reacted to a letter by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) instructing the Nigeria Customs Service, NCS, to monitor and arrest him anytime he wants to run away from the country.

DAILY POST had reported that the agency in a letter signed by its acting chairman, Ibrahim Magu, to the comptroller-general of customs urged the Service to place him on the watchlist and ensure he does not escape.

Fayose who enjoys immunity from prosecution as a governor is set to appear before the EFCC on October 16 over an allegation of money laundering, conspiracy, abuse of office, among others.

However, in a swift reaction, Fayose said ‘putting him on the watchlist was not only political but petty. He maintained that he would remain with PDP no matter the action taken against him.

He tweeted, “@officialEFCC, should note that when a woman is being brought to you as a wife, you don’t have to peep through the window to see her. As I said in my letter, Insha Allah, I will be in your office on October 16, a day after the expiration of my tenure.

“@officialEFCC Putting my name on watchlist after receiving notification of my coming is not only political but petty. I’m not among those who are afraid to face tomorrow. Nobody is God.

“They should expect me on October 16 by 1pm.

“Whatever they do, I will remain in PDP.”
