The face -off between the 19 All Progressives
Congress (APC) lawmakers in Ekiti State House of
Assembly and Governor Ayo Fayose may soon be
over, as the governor says he is willing to
negotiate with the lawmakers
The lawmakers are pushing for the impeachment
of the governor, as they have directed the state
Chief Judge, Justice Ayodeji Daramola, to
constitute a panel to investigate allegations of
gross misconduct levelled against him and his
deputy, Dr. Kolapo Olusola
Speaking on Friday during a thanksgiving service
at Ansar ud Deen Mosque, Ado Ekiti on his victory
at the Supreme Court, which affirmed his election,
Fayose said he was ready to sit with the
lawmakers and negotiate.
This statement was not without a caveat as the
governor clarified that he was ready to make
peace with the lawmakers as long as they were
ready to embrace the move in the over all interest
of the state.
“I am not opposed to anything that can bring
peace; peace cannot be wished away. I’m ready
to accommodate everybody. Whatever they want,
we can sit down and talk”, the governor stated.
“There is no perfect man. They should allow
peace to reign. All I want is peace that will
energise development”.
He said he was waving the olive branch in the
overall interest of Ekiti people as well as
restoration of peace.
Fayose said he had received calls and appeals for
amicable solution to the lingering crisis by
eminent Nigerians, religious leaders as well as
traditional rulers.
The governor apologized to those he might
have offended one way or the other, in the
course of carrying out his duties as governor
saying only God was perfect.
