Following
the fiasco between Governor Fayose and the EFCC, the governor has
denied claims that he closed down the Access Bank branch in the state
where the incident happened.
Governor Ayodele Fayose and Sonia Chikwendu, wife of former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode
Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State has said news making the rounds that he shutdown the Access Bank branch in state over the incident with EFCC
who tried to arrest Sonia Chikwendu, wife of former Minister of
Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, in the bank premises is a lie from the
pit of hell.
This was made clear in a statement issued by Fayose's Chief Press Secretary, Mr Idowu Adelusi.
The statement reads: "The attention of the state government has
been drawn to rumours making the round, especially on social media that
Ekiti State Government has shut down a branch of Access Bank in
Ado-Ekiti, the state capital.
"This is definitely coming from the warped minds of opposition
elements, whose mouths have been locked by the sterling performance of
Governor Ayodele Fayose and the unprecedented support he is enjoying
from the people of the state.
"For the sake of clarity, Ekiti State Government has no axe to
grind with the management of Access Bank. Also, the state government
does not license banks and can't withdraw same.
"We enjoin the good people of Ekiti State and Nigerians in
general to disregard such unfounded rumours. They should not let
themselves be dragged to the level of the unintelligent like the
opposition people have shown by embarking on this type of insinuation
they probably brought from the pit of hell."
