Ayodele Fayose, has said that he remained unmoved by the media trial adopted by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission against him.

He said the EFCC and its collaborators in the All Progressives Congress should wait till 2018 after his tenure when he would confront “their lies.”

Fayose said, “The EFCC did more than this in 2006 but when I challenged their cooked up stories on poultry project in the court, the EFCC failed to substantiate all their allegations against me and their case crumbled like a pack of cards.”

Speaking through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, the governor accused the anti-graft commission of concocting stories in an attempt to tarnish his image.

He said,

“If what the EFCC and its collaborators are now relying on is a driver or a source in EFCC that speaking for Zenith Bank, and not the former National Security Adviser, Col. Sambo Dasuki (retd) that they claimed gave the former Minister of State for Defence, Senator Musiliu Obanikoro money to give me, goodluck to them.

“The EFCC and its spin doctors can continue to cook up stories and feed their collaborators in the media. The media trial can continue unabated, I am not moved. I am more focused, more resolute, I don’t lose battles. The one that they did in 2006 did not ultimately prevent me from having a second term as governor of Ekiti State and whatever they are doing now will also not stop me from handing over to a Peoples Democratic Party governor in 2018.

“I will meet them in court and the whole world will again listen to their feeble stories as it happened in poultry saga.”
