The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti State has accused Governor Kayode Fayemi of sponsoring thugs that have been attacking people and destroying properties in the state.

Further accusing the police of aiding the thugs, PDP alleged that four people abducted by the thugs were dumped at the Police Headquarters in Ado Ekiti and later taken to the Government House where they were assaulted.

Accusing the state government of unleashing thugs on its citizens, PDP wrote: 

”They are now being detained like criminals while nothing has been done to apprehend the thugs who attacked them.”

"The thugs, who moved around Ado Ekiti on Tuesday, in a branded bus owned by a former APC governorship aspirant, Engr Kayode Ojo, fired the shots that killed Sunday Ogunleye, a native of Odo Ayedun Ekiti, in Ikole Local Government.

“The armed thugs that invaded GNN Guest House at Jimoh Aliu Street, Adebayo in Ado Ekiti, owned by Dayo Maxima, are known to belong to what they termed ‘Team Ekiti.’

“They are known boys of the notorious Rotimi Olanbiwonnu (Mentilo), who is an appointee of Governor Fayemi.

“The police must therefore bring these people to face the law, otherwise, those being attacked might be forced to begin to defend themselves.”
