APC Accuses Ayo Fayose Of Awarding N200m Contract To Brother To Paint New Gov Office

The All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State has accused Governor Ayodele Fayose of awarding the repainting of the Governor’s Office to his “blood brother” at the cost of N200m.

It also accused the governor of awarding a contract to put marble in front of the Government House, which he (Fayose) had earlier described as too expensive; and relaying of asphalt on an already asphalted road leading to the lodge.

In a statement by the State Publicity Secretary, Taiwo Olatunbosun, on Sunday, the APC said, “To add salt to injury, artisans working on the marble are all imported from Ibadan, when many Ekiti artisans could do the job. This a man who claims to be a friend of the masses.
“He is repainting the Governor’s Office, awarded by direct labour at the cost of N200m awarded to his blood brother.
“He told the Permanent Secretary, General Administration Department and Head of Service to find alternative entrance for civil servants, who work within the Governor’s office building because he doesn’t want to be meeting the ‘evil servants’ while coming in at the main entrance
