Ekiti Government House Home to Thugs and Criminal Elements – APC

The Ekiti State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has reacted to an editorial by the state governor, Ayodele Fayose, accusing President Muhammadu Buhari of being a dictator by allegedly sending Department of State Services operatives to invade the Akwa Ibom Government House, Uyo.

The party, in a statement signed by its Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatunbosun, on Sunday, insisted that the operatives had not violated the nation’s law by moving against illegal arms dump.

“Let us educate Fayose that a Government House is not the same as foreign embassies or missions that enjoy physical immunity from security activities by local armed forces
“While a governor enjoys immunity from physical and body security search, the same cannot be said of the Government House because no law in the nation’s constitution says the Government House should be a breeding ground for insurrection and insurgency where state enemies can assemble arms to topple a legitimate government and we suspect Fayose as an accomplice in the arms stockpiling saga in the Akwa Ibom Government House, otherwise there is no reason for him to be edgy and agitated in his response,” Olatunbosun explained.
