The All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State has accused Governor Ayodele Fayose of destroying posters of its presidential candidate, Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), and other APC candidates for the 2015 general elections.

The party also alleged that the governor had recruited members of a faction of the Oodua Peoples Congress, through the leader of the Peoples democratic Party faction in the Assembly, Dele Olugbemi, to unleash attack on its members and secretariats in the state.

The APC had on Monday raised the alarm over alleged plan by leaders of the PDP to attack Buhari and his convoy when coming for the Saturday presidential campaign rally.

Addressing journalists in Ado-Ekiti on Tuesday, the State Publicity Secretary of the party, Taiwo Olatunbosun, said, Ekiti is in a political turmoil, crisis, hostility, pandemonium, harakiri, unrest, instability, and we believe all the security agencies will view it seriously.

Today, our candidates are finding it difficult to move freely on the streets of Ekiti. It is even a big issue for us to be in the office.

He recalled that the party had petitioned the National Security Adviser, security agencies, President Goodluck Jonathan and royal fathers on the ongoing violence in the state without any response.

He queried why the state government started removing campaign posters after Jonathan had visited the state for campaign.

Olatunbosun said, We have paid to signage (agency) the required fees. The first letter we got from them was after the campaign of their own presidential candidate. Before then, they never raised any issue. They have the record that we have paid to paste posters.

We are law abiding citizens, having met the condition, should they recruit members of the OPC to start removing our posters?
