The Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has said that he will never beg the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC; adding that, the anti-graft agency is a “senseless organisation”.
Fayose noted this in a statement released by his Chief Press Secretary, on Thursday evening.
He said: “EFCC is a senseless body, because if they are not senseless, it should have known that the man who wrote the petition had been sacked, because he did not deserve to be called a civil servant. The arrest was orchestrated by Ekiti indigenes, in collaboration with the EFCC.

“I will never go and beg EFCC; it will rather beg me. I will not negotiate anything, because I am not afraid of them. There was a subsisting court order that barred them from arresting any official of this State, but they breached the law.
“By the grace of God, I will restructure the EFCC when I become the President of this nation. I will re-organise EFCC and make it looks responsible. They detained me in 2008, but I won them in court, because the highest God was on my side.

“They said the NNPC Group Managing Director awarded $25b contracts illegally, the EFCC did nothing. Even the Presidency has been the one defending him now. What is their interest in Ekiti? Whose interest is EFCC protecting?”, Fayose asked.
Speaking further, Fayose accused President Muhammadu Buhari, of punishing the citizens of this State illegally, saying: “He has not tarred one kilometre of the road since he came into office.
“This was the way the DSS arrested Hon. Afolabi Akanni. They even stopped the State allocation at a time, but whatever they do, Ekiti shall put them to shame”, the Governor boldly said.
