I watched part of the Tope Aluko Show yesterday and also the last fifteen minutes of the programme. For obvious reasons, those "revelations" will make some people very excited. I can understand.
Secondly, I am NOT in any way saying the guy lied or not. No. Thirdly, I am from Ekiti and I have the following submissions to make about Fayose, Fayemi and the 2014 election in the state.
1. On February 17, 2012, on appointment with then Chief of Staff to Governor Fayemi, Yemi Adaramodu, I traveled to Ekiti. The first day I could not reach him. Eventually, I got him on phone the following morning and he asked me to meet him in the office by 10am. He came around 2pm and I cancelled the appointment myself when I saw the number of people waiting to see him including a former governor, former minister and party leaders. And that day was state Exco meeting day. I called a friend and said these words to him: WHEN YOU CREATE AN ALTERNATE POWER CENTRE WITHIN THE MAIN POWER CENTRE, THE MAIN POWER CENTRE IS ALWAYS IN TROUBLE! Adaramodu created problem for Fayemi from day one. If that friend is reading this, he will bear me witness! Many APC leaders know this!
2. On February 10, 2014, I went to Ekiti State as Features Editor of THE UNION to feel the pulse of the people about the election. I spent FOUR days and I spoke to people across SOCIAL, ECONOMIC and POLITICAL divides and I concluded that only a miracle could make Fayemi win that election. I still cannot explain it till today but despite modest achievements, there was this palpable disconnect between him and the people, his party and leaders in the state.
3. As at the time I did this report, Fayose had NOT even emerged as PDP's candidate. Opeyemi Bamidele had moved to Labour and depleted the rank of Fayemi.
4. There was a very deep cold war between Tinubu/Fashola on one side and Fayemi on the other side. Niyi Adebayo was tge alleged cause. Tinubu simply refused to get too involved in Fayemi's reelection campaign. It took a lot of begging and appealing by Babafemi Ojudu for Tinubu to attend the mega rally by APC on Thursday June 19, 2014. I challenge any APC leader to say I am lying. To raise campaign funds, APC governors were each taxed to give certain amount to Fayemi (I will keep the figure to myself) which some of them reluctantly did. One actually completed his after the election had even been lost! Again, let them debunk this!
5. Shortly after I came back from Ekiti, I put a call to my friend Mallam Jaji (he can bear me witness if he wants to) that I did NOT care who won in Ekiti; all I wanted was peace. But from what I saw on ground, Fayemi would not win.
6. I also heard a report that Fayemi had a friend, an actuarial scientist, who also did a field work on the election. He reported back to his friend another damning situation which Fayemi's wife waved away. I am yet to confirm this story.
7. Did Army also ensure that PDP won the presidential, senatorial and Reps elections in the state last year? Unless they won't be honest, NO TOP APC LEADER WILL CONTEST THE FACT THAT FAYEMI WAS ROUNDLY DEFEATED IN 2014! They all saw it coming. Some of them even worked for Fayose!
Finally, if Aluko is making these allegations, it means some of those clapping for him and sponsoring him (yes, quote me) don't know him. Call any top politician in Ekiti and ask them the kind of person he is. Today he is in APC. But know that the moment he doesn't get what he wants in the party, he would move again and start spilling the beans. All political parties have their dirty secrets. Including APC!
