Ekiti Kasala!!! Ayo Fayose arrives in Ado, lifts curfew imposed by Fayemi

There was confusion in Ado-Ekiti on Tuesday when the Governor-elect, Ayo Fayose, announced the lifting of the curfew imposed by the outgoing Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi.

The Governor-elect, who returned to Ekiti in the afternoon amid cheers and jubilation by his supporters, announced this while featuring on a live radio and television interview monitored on the Nigerian Television Authority in Ado-Ekiti.



Fayemi had on September 26, while declaring a dusk-to-dawn curfew in the state, said, “There would be no movement between the hours of 7pm and 7am. everyday till further notice.

“We urge the citizenry to be vigilant and provide the security agencies with details of suspicious activities that can undermine the peace in our state.”

The declaration followed widespread violence across the state capital after the murder of a former Chairman of the National Union of Road Transport Workers, Omolafe Aderiye, by unknown gunmen.

The office of Kayode Fayemi Campaign Organisation and three vehicles in the state secretariat of the All Progressives Congress were burnt the next day.

On September 22, political thugs had invaded the Ekiti State High Court presided over by Justice Olusegun Ogunyemi to disrupt proceedings in a case challenging the eligibility of the Governor-elect, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, to contest the June 21 election won by him.

The invasion took place shortly after the judge refused an application to set aside an order abridging the time for the Peoples Democratic Party’s candidate to file his defence in the case filed by two members of the Ekiti-11, a member, Mr. Adeniyi Ajakaiye and Olufemi Ajayi.

On September 25, another judge, Justice John Adeyeye, was beaten by some political thugs who also tore his suit into shreds.

Fayose said residents should ignore the subsisting curfew and go about their normal duty because it had brought untold hardship to the people.
