Fayose claiming Fayemis projects -APC

The All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State has accused Governor Ayodele Fayose of claiming projects executed by his predecessor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, as his own to mark his first 100 days in office.

The opposition party described the first 100 days of Fayoses administration as a celebration of fortunes reversal for the state, saying all the gains achieved under former Governors Segun Oni and Fayemi had been eroded by Fayoses government of deceit founded on impunity and violence.

In a statement by the APC State Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatubosun, the party said while both Oni and Fayemi raised the bar in modern governance founded on rule of law and due process, Fayose had no respect for the rule of law, due process and civil approach in government and the governed relations.

Accusing Fayose of falsehood in claiming Fayemis administrations projects as his projects within 100 days, Olatubosun added that 19 of the presidential campaign buses allocated to Ekiti State were donated to the police few days ago for security duties as part of Fayoses achievements.

The asphalt overlay at Fayose Market he commissioned is an MDG project already paid for by the Fayemi administration. The asphalt plant he commissioned was bought and paid for by Fayemis administration. Fayose only received the equipment when they were shipped into Nigeria.

The Mathew Street road is the joke of the century as Fayose only fixed the culvert and graded some portions of the road which he now commissioned as a project. This is nothing short of taking Ekiti people for a ride. It is chicanery of the highest form.

Now that it has been established that Fayose did nothing in his first 100 days in office, we wish to say that so far, Fayose has set back the hand of clock of progress in Ekiti State through cloudy management of public funds and violence on the good people of Ekiti State, including taking from the poor to expand the coast of his mindless acquisition of wealth.

Credible evidence shows that the governor is acquiring landed properties in choice areas of the state. A plot of land opposite Fayose market has just been acquired by the governor. How can Fayose take another mans projects as his projects?

What is he doing with Ekiti money running into billions? Why is he holding such large sums of money and yet he cant pay salaries? Are all these what Fayose promised during his campaign, Olatubosun queried.

The APC spokesman said while Fayose was deceiving Ekiti people with fake projects within 100 days, Fayemi had concrete projects he executed to the applause of Ekiti people during his 100 days in office.

APC govt will end insurgency -Buhari

The Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, General Muhammadu Buhari, on Wednesday expressed shock at reports of the latest Boko Haram attacks in Borno State.

The sect attacked Maiduguri, Konduga and Monguno where over 40,000 more refugees were reportedly joining the ranks of the internally displaced persons.

In a statement signed by the Director of Media and Publicity of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Mallam Garba Shehu, Buhari was quoted as expressing his condolences, support and prayers to all IDPs including soldiers affected by the latest insurgent attacks.

The statement partly read: Buhari, however, assured the situation in the affected areas wont last forever.

While I commiserate with the latest victims of this despicable orgy of violence in Borno State, I equally implore them to bear in mind that this situation wont last forever, Garba quoted Buhari as having said.

In spite of the incompetent handling of this insurgency by the Federal Government, solution is in sight with the APC set to dislodge the PDP administration that has ruinously led this great country for nearly 16 years.

Buhari will inherit a sick economy, says el-Rufai

The All Progressives Congress governorship candidate in Kaduna State, Malam Nasir el-Rufai, said the presidential candidate of the APC, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari(retd.), will inherit a sick economy when elected as President in the February.

El-Rufai noted that he would inherit a bankrupt state if eventually elected as the chief executive officer of Kaduna State in the February 28 poll.

The former minister of the Federal Capital Territory spoke at an Organised Private Sector interactive session on Tuesday in Kaduna.

He said the state was reeling under domestic liabilities totalling N106bn owed to various sources.

He argued that most of the money received or generated is used to settle debts, adding that about N700bn was wasted in the past seven years in the state, a situation he described as most unfortunate.

El-Rufai noted that the nation was presently passing through an economic crisis as it was in 1983.

General Muhammadu Buhari will be inheriting a broken economy like he did in 1983, just like I am going to likely inherit a bankrupt state when we take over power, he said.

Speaking on his manifesto, the governorship candidate said if elected into office in February, he would, among other things, develop human capital, ensure a free and compulsory education for the first nine years for all children in the state as well as fix schools and improve on teachers training.

He said he would ensure that the salary of teachers were higher than any civil servants in the states workforce.

Other area that would receive his attention, el-Rufai said, was the security of lives and property of the people of the state.
