Governor Ayodele Fayose
The Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose today, visited former
Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode at the EFCC Abuja Office. Fayose
arrived at the EFCC office at 2:15pm and left at 4:30pm. He was received
by three operatives of the EFCC led by Mr Madaki.
Governor Fayose spent about 30mins with Fani-Kayode encouraging him
and even prayed with him. He urged him not to feel abandoned or
discouraged as many Nigerians understand that the Buhari-led government
are not fighting corruption but trying to crush the critics of the
government.
Some senators on Tuesday, paid a solidarity visit to three former
ministers, Femi Fani-Kayode, Musiliu Obanikoro and Bala Muhammed, and
former presidential spokesperson, Reuben Abati, who are in the custody
of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission in Abuja with Obanikoro
and Abati now free.
It would be recalled that four serving senators last week Tuesday,
identified as Isah Hamma from Bauchi Central, Ali Wakili from Bauchi
South, Ali Ndume from Borno South, and Philips Aduda from the Federal
Capital Territory had visisted Fani-Kayode at the EFCC detention centre
in Abuja.
A former Oyo State senator, Teslim Folarin, was also among the
visitors. The senators gave the former ministers and former presidential
spokesperson the assurances of their support.
