Former
Ekiti State governor, Mr Ayo Fayose, has said that he was not distracted by the
attempt made to kill him last Tuesday by yet-to-be identified assassins, saying
rather, it will strengthen him more in his determination to defeat Governor
Kayode Fayemi at next year’s governorship poll.
His
declaration came as the Campaign Director General of Ayo Fayose for Governor,
Mr. Owoseni Ajayi, asked the police to conduct a thorough investigation into the
matter.
In
a statement signed by the Director of
Publicity and Research of Ayo Fayose Campaign Organisation (AFCO), Mr. Idowu
Adelusi, in Ado Ekiti Saturday, Fayose said the attack has added impetus to his
resolve to ensure that the Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) government was
sacked from the Ekiti Government House next year.
“I
am unpertubed by the attack and I cannot be intimidated. The spate of violence
in the state, the murder of Ayodele Jeje and the attempt on my life are making
the ACN government more unpopular. I am advising all my supporters not to get
disturbed. God is my refuge,” Fayose said in the statement.
Meanwhile,
the Campaign Director General of Ayo Fayose for Governor, Ajayi, has urged the
police to unmask the attackers, saying the police should not wait until life is
lost before they take drastic measure to curb violence in the state.
He said that the attack on Fayose has exposed the plan of the ACN government to eliminate him and other People Democratic Party (PDP) leaders before next year’s election.
