| Gov. Fayose, Governor Of Ekiti State. |
The Nation reports that the personal accounts of Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti state and those of some of his associates were frozen on the orders of the EFCC.
Governor Fayose was mad in the Zenith bank in Edo- Ekiti, Ekiti State Capital as He discovered that his personal bank account was freeze by the anti corruption agency. In His normal behavior, He promised to challenge the action of the EFCC in court.
While He was doing what He knows to do best in the banking hall, though the bank management was helpless because they can not do any thing in this case, says the bank Manager.
The Nation front page A visibly angry Fayose stormed the premises of Zenith Bank, Ado-Ekiti, where he has his personal account, screaming that he had immunity and would contest the freeze but the bankers remained unmoved. The governor therefore called on the federal government to fight corruption within the ambit of the law. In reaction, the EFCC said Fayose cannot stop the anti-graft commission from doing its job.
Responding to the action of the agency, the EFCC spokesman Wilson Uwujaren said the account was frozen because governors have no immunity against investigation and Fayose is not an exception.
Also a top official of the anti-graft agency said Fayose’s personal account was frozen following clues on alleged “suspicious lodgments”.
According to Vanguard reports, that this action immediately prompted diverse reactions. One of those that was reached by Vanguard correspondent, Prof Itse Sagay, the chairman of the presidential advisory committee on corruption, said the anti-graft agency had the power to freeze accounts or assets of anyone under investigation.
Also speaking, Chief Emeka Ngige said the commission can freeze any account irrespective of who owns it, during an investigation. “It is not touching the account but just suspending the usage of the account,” he added. On his part, Ozekhome said it is illegal and unconstitutional for the account of a sitting governor to be frozen while in office.
After, all the drama, Fayose said that He will publish President Buhari's wife corruption practices that she is involved with the Halliburton scandal. He said that Asiah pay the sum of $ 170,000 into one of the cuprits of the Halliburton scandal.
He adverse President Buhari to be free from corruption before He will pursue others. Not to bath corruption and then go after others when He is corrupt.
Will Fasoye and Buhari war end, What is the bone of contention between them?
