Fayemi speaks on link to ADC coalition

Fayemi

Former Ekiti State Governor, Kayode Fayemi, has stated that he remains a committed member and leader of the All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State.

The former governor, in a statement on Sunday by the Head, Fayemi Media Office, Abuja, Ahmad Sajoh, dismissed the claim in a viral statement attributed to former governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi, that he and Fayemi founded the new African Democratic Congress coalition before expanding it to include others.

Sajoh said, “Despite efforts to verify this statement, which has gained traction on social and digital media, we have found no credible evidence to support it.

“No video of Hon. Amaechi making these claims or reports from reputable media organisations has been located.”

While speaking on the possibility of the statement fabricated to cause controversies to provoke or profit, Sajoh said, “It is possible that Amaechi did not make the statement or was misquoted”, as he urged the public “to treat any news concerning Fayemi with caution, particularly when it originates solely from social media.”

He said, “We unequivocally state that these claims lack any basis. Dr Fayemi remains a committed member and leader of the APC in Ekiti State.

“At various public forums in Ekiti and nationwide, he has consistently affirmed his dedication to the APC, working to address its challenges and advance its progressive ideals for Nigeria. Nothing has changed. Punch
