Plot to remove Fayose ‘ll consume Buhari’s govt, says Ekiti PDP

By -

The Peoples Democratic Party in Ekiti State on Thursday declared that the alleged subterranean moves to impeach Governor Ayodele Fayose would lead to the total collapse of the administration of President Muhamadu Buhari, if eventually carried out. The party said it was reasonable and justifiable that the governor wrote the Acting Chief Justice of the Nigeria, Justice Walter Onnoghen, informing him of the alleged moves to co-opt a section of the judiciary to the devilish plot. Speaking in Ado Ekiti on Thursday, the PDP State Chairman, Gboyega Oguntuase, cautioned that the alleged plot to remove the governor would create crisis of monumental proportion that would be difficult for the Nigeria Army to curtail.

THE Kogi State All Progressives Congress (APC), on Wednesday, lashed out at those behind the report purportedly credited to the state wing of the party which disparaged Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The masterminds were described as fifth columnists in the party, who lacked the locus standi to speak for it but out to cause disharmony among members. But the party, in a statement by all members of its State Executive Council, led by the chairman, Alhaji Haddy Ametuo, said that APC members had no reason to disparage Senator Tinubu, adding that President Muhammadu Buhari would be supported to pick anybody, including Faleke, into the Federal Executive Council (FEC). Other signatories are Shaibu Osune (Deputy Chairman); Adejoh Abdusalam (Secretary); Isah Daniel (Vice Chairman, East); Gbenga Asagun (Vice Chairman, West); Ibrahim A Ahovi (Vice Chairman, Central); Isah Abubakar (Organising Secretary); Ghali Inda Usman (Publicity Secretary); Joseph Molemodile (Legal Adviser) and Abubakar
