The Ekiti state chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC has accused Governor Ayo Fayose of distributing kwashiorkor-infested chickens to indigenes of the state as part of his stomach infrastructure project; THIS DAY reports.
A statement issued by the APC said that "the governor has turned Ekiti people to beggars by giving them handouts in the form of kwashiorkor-infested chickens not bigger in size than ailing pigeons".
"Ekiti people have now seen the deceit of a man who says he is a friend of the common man with his callous attitude to the people he claims to love during the period the people are supposed to be happy.
"Governor Fayose gave two ‘congos’ of rice and miserable palm oil not up to one litre all totalling N700 to each worker from whom the governor had earlier deducted N2,000 from his/her salary in lieu of the Christmas gift.
"This is in contrast to former Governor Kayode Fayemi, who empowered the people through agriculture, cooperatives and employment and apprenticeship schemes involving over 2,000 youths, which helped the people to earn a living and made them happy for four years as against Fayose’s tokenism as Christmas gifts.
"Fayemi last year paid civil servants 30 per cent of their salary as Christmas bonus. He also paid their leave bonus, while their December salary was paid on December 18. In contrast, Fayose has refused to pay civil servants their September salary even though he has collected the September allocation from the Federation Account.
"Civil servants are yet to be paid as at December 22. Last year, apart from the 30 per cent and leave bonuses, all offices in the MDAS were given gifts but all these have gone under Fayose, as workers are now praying for their September salaries let alone December salaries or Christmas or leave bonus.
"Governor Fayose should ask Ekiti citizens how Fayemi added value to their lives for four years. He didn’t wait till Christmas period to pay N10,000 to over 20,000 youths in volunteer services for four years. He didn't wait till Christmas before he paid N5,000 to 20,000 elderly people in his social security scheme for four years, in addition to feeding them with both cooked and raw food all year round,” APC said.
