After the youth service, Fayose traveled out of the
country during which he was exposed to a broad
spectrum of business that guided his life later.
[1]He is married to Feyisetan. He conducted one of the
most sought after medical outreach programmes
[2]during his political campaign in 2001.
Fayose and Politics
Edit
Fayose became the second governor of Ekiti on 29
May 2003 after defeating the then incumbent
Governor
Niyi Adebayo in the governorship elections.
Fayose could not complete his tenure as a result of
an impeachment on 16 October 2006.
During the 2014 Governorship election in Ekiti State,
Peter Ayodele Fayose was again the PDP nominee.
He won the election and was declared by the
Independent National Electoral Commission as the
new Governor of Ekiti State; he was inaugurated on
16 Oct 2014. Fayose is now the only Nigerian to
defeat an incumbent two times.
Though he is a sitting governor, Fayose is the only
person from the mail opposition party in Nigeria to
have publicly declared his intentions to run for
[3]president in 2019. Though his party, The Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, has admonished the Governor,
against his ambition to be the party’s presidential
[4]candidate in 2019.
Allegation of Vote Rigging
Edit
An army intelligence officer Captain Sagir Koli of the
Nigerian Army 32nd Artillery Brigade, secretly
recorded a vote-rigging plan on June 20, 2014 when
he was asked to accompany his then commanding
Officer, Brigadier General Aliyu Momoh, to a meeting
[5][6][7]at Spotless Hotel in Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State.
The 37-minute audio recording was attended by the
eventual “winner” of the election, Governor Ayodele
Fayose of Ekiti State; Senator
Iyiola Omisore of Osun
State; a member of the National Assembly Abdul
Kareem; the Minister for Police Affairs Alhaji Jelili
Adesiyan; the former Minister for Police Affairs and
navy captain Caleb Olubolade; the Minister of State
for Defense
Senator Musiliu Obanikoro and PDP
Anambra chieftain and failed senate candidate Chris
Uba, as they bribed army Brigadier General Momoh
with a rank promotion for his assistance in carrying
[8][9]out election fraud in Ekiti State.
For exposing the vote-rigging of the Ekiti State
governor election of Fayose, Captain Sagir Koli was
praised by the military for his “non-partisanship and
[10][11]professional conduct during the election period.”
A chieftain of the Peoples’ Democratic Party, PDP in
Ekiti State, Hon. Opeyemi Falegan says, the unguided
and carefree tyrannical and dictatorship tendencies of
the state Governor, Mr. Ayo Fayose, will be resisted in
2018 governorship election.
He said the act of playing smartness and displaying
of illogical arrogance to the disadvantage of the party
members which has become the only trade mark of
the Governor will be checkmated, especially over
who will fly the flag of the party in 2018.
In a release made available to newsmen in Ado Ekiti,
the United Kingdom based politician described the
alleged imposition of the current deputy governor
Prof. Kolapo Olusola by the governor as a ruse, child
play and a dramatic comedy of highest order.
“What a political comic relief in a political tense
atmosphere like Ekiti and the game is nothing but
another attempt by the Governor to trade off, the
State in order to have a soft landing because of array
of crimes hanging on his neck”.
Just two days ago, the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission EFCC listed Governor Fayose as one of
the Governors under its investigation watch list over
financial related crimes.
Therefore, the purported adoption of Prof. Olusola
was a joke and exercise in futility by the governor
and his cohorts. We will not fold our arms to watch
them to kill PDP because of their selfish and
inordinate dream of becoming accidental leaders in
the state and Nigeria at the expense of real persons.
On April 4, 2016, the disgraced brigadier-general Aliyu
Momoh was dishonourably sacked from the Nigerian
military based on the recommendations of a military
panel set up by the Army authorities to look into
allegations of professional misconduct against military
personnel in the conduct of the June 14, 2014
governorship poll in Ekiti State, the 2015 general
elections and the August, 2014 governorship election
[12]in Osun State.
Bank Accounts Blocked by EFCC
Edit
The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission froze
four Zenith Bank accounts used by Fayose to launder
money for his Ekiti governorship election in 2014 in a
lawsuit no. FHC/CS?871/2016 titled “Federal Republic
of Nigeria Vs Zenith bank PLC account numbers
1003126654, 9013074033, 1010170969 and
1013835889.”
The judge Justice Mohammed Idris had granted the
EFCC on June 24, 2016 an order freezing all the funds
in the said accounts in Zenith Bank. Two accounts
belong to Governor Ayo Fayose while the third
belongs to his hotel Spotless Hotel in Ado Ekiti. The
fourth account was operated by one of Fayose’s
aides, Abiodun Agbele, who is under EFCC custody.
The EFCC had alleged that those accounts possessed
funds, said to be about N4.7 billion (US20mn)stolen
from the office of the National Security Adviser, with
most of the money secretly retained by Fayose for
[13][14][15]his personal use after the election.
Challenged Aisha Buhari To Travel To USA
Edit
On June 22, 2016, Fayose had claimed that Aisha
Buhari, the wife of the Nigerian president
Muhammadu Buhari was the same person (who had
claimed to be a daughter of General Muhammadu
[16]Buhari) indicted by a US Court for transferring
170,000 to indicted US Congressman, Williams
Jefferson, in the
William J. Jefferson corruption case
[17][18][19]involving Halliburton and that she was
avoiding arrest by US authorities by failing to
accompany her husband on his three presidential
[20]visits to the United States.
However, when Aisha Buhari travelled to Washington
[21]DC in August 4, 2016, Fayose subsequently
claimed that her US visit did not invalidated the
Haliburton judgement against her, saying "Has
traveling to the US invalidated the judgment that said
Aisha Buhari transferred 170,000 to Jefferson’s
account? “Has traveling to the US erased the fact that
Aisha Buhari transferred 170,000 to Williams
[Jefferson?
