Just Keep your $1m, we won’t collaborate with DSS to unseat Fayose – Ekiti lawmakers

Read the press statement below... Members of the Ekiti State House of Assembly have raised the alarm over plot to coerce them into impeaching Governor Ayodele Fayose, saying a sum of $1 million was being promised some of the members that will be ready to be part of the impeachment plot. The Assembly members, who vowed not to collaborate with anyone to truncate the government of Governor Fayose, added that; they were prepared to spend the rest of their tenure in DSS cell, instead of joining people that they roundly defeated in five straight elections to cause another political instability in Ekiti State.

Addressing the press on Tuesday, Chairman of the House Committee on Information, Hon Gboyega Aribisogan disclosed that "In the last four days, eight of our members had been visited by some men, who claimed to be officials of the DSS. "Our members were told that their names were among those to be arrested and they must 'cooperate' if they do not want their bank accounts frozen and be kept in DSS detention indefinitely."

The lawmakers said the 2006 experience, in which Assembly members in Ekiti State were hounded in EFCC detention and made to sign impeachment of Governor Fayose on the table of the EFCC Chairman will never be repeated in the State. Aribisogan, who was flanked by 12 other members of the House of Assembly said; "We are here to inform the public through your various medium the open involvement of men of the Department of State Service (DSS) from Abuja in the plot to unseat our State Governor, Mr Peter Ayodele Fayose.

"The last Friday invasion of the State House of Assembly by armed men of the DSS in which four of our members were abducted, has been established to be a prelude to the clandestine plot to coerce members of the House of Assembly to impeach Governor Fayose. "As at today, even Hon Afolabi Akanni that we were able to confirm was with the DSS in Abuja is being held incommunicado. No one has been given access to him, not even his lawyers and doctors. We do not have any information as to the whereabouts of the other three.

"We are aware of the plot to arrest no fewer than 18 of our members with a view to forcing them to sign impeachment notice against Governor Fayose. "The plot is being hatched by the same elements who masterminded the impeachment of Governor Fayose in 2006, which was eventually declared illegal by the Supreme Court and they are boasting of support of the DSS and the Presidency.

"In the last four days, eight of our member had been visited by some men, who claimed to be officials of the DSS. Our members were told that their names were among those to be arrested and they must “cooperate” if they do not want their bank accounts frozen and be kept in DSS detention indefinitely. "They went on to promise that proper arrangement had been made for the impeachment of the governor, with a sum of $1 million already earmarked for sharing among “cooperating” assembly members. "Also, our members were told that they will be provided with soft-landing in the APC if they cooperate. One of them revealed that they promised to make him the Speaker, and eventually the Acting Governor.

"We however wish to tell the plotters of evil against the government of Ayodele Fayose and by extension the people of Ekiti State that we, members of the State House of Assembly are not interested in their evil plot. "We are prepared to spend the rest of our tenure in DSS cell, instead of joining people that we roundly defeated in five straight elections to cause another political instability in Ekiti State.

"These agents of destabilisation should be reminded of the 2006 episode, which was responsible for Ekiti State having six governors in three years! "Most importantly, Governor Fayose is our benefactor. He is our leader on whose political strength we are members of the State House of Assembly. We can even be called his stooges, we don’t mind. We will never do anything to jeopardise his interest and be extension, interests of Ekiti people.

"We therefore wish to state unequivocally that we are not interested in any $1 million. "We won’t because of any blood money join forces with enemies of our State, who are desirous of destabilising the State just because they lost power."

Too bad! Pastor Rap.es Female Church Member For Refusing To Marry Him......

A 29-year-old man of God in Ebonyi State, identified as Pastor David Ibe, has been arrested and detained by the police in Ebonyi State for allegedly raping a female church member, Nnenaya Okute, because she refused to accept to marry him.

New Agency of Nigeria (NAN), reportsthat Ibe who is the clergy in charge of Christ Command Mission, Onicha-Igboeze, Onicha Local Government Area of the state, had allegedly lured Okute to an uncompleted building where he defiled her, leaving her with severe bruises. The Police Public Relatins officer (PPRO), in the state, DSP George Okafor, who confirmed the arrest, noted that Pastor Ibe committed the offence on February 27, 2016, when he lured the unsuspecting Okute to an uncompleted building at Umuobunna Uburu and sexually assaulted her.

“The suspect is an impostor who is among those claiming to be pastors but dent God’s image through their atrocities. He has been arrested and has confessed to committing the crime, though he claimed that she refused to marry him after investing heavily on her.

It is terrible that he choose to rape the girl for refusing to marry him, as he will be used to set example to others who commit such crimes.” Okafor therefore warned members of the public to be wary of evil men in cassocks, claiming to be genuine men of God.
