Ekiti state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party PDP has

e state as a failure and his achievements as a mere tantalizing mirages which can never translate to real and concrete development in the state.
The Director General of
Media Communications and publicity of the party Chief Dr. Gboyega Aribisogan
said this today at a press conference held at the Millennium press Iyaganku centre Ibadan.
According to the
party,” Fayemi and his co traveller have been able to deliver to the state in
the last two years a mere tantalizing mirage which cannever translate to real
and concrete development in the state”. Adding that rather than concentrate on
pogramms that have direct impact on the people the government has been wasting
funds on globetrotting jamborees and expansionist agenda of its party ”.
The party spokesman said further that most of the project
claimed to by the present administration
in the state were constructed by the previous administration “ the government claimed it has constructed 103 kilometres of roads in the state, there
is no truth in this as the government in the last two years has not constructed
a single road but asphalted about 85 kilometres
of existing roads in the state. All this roads mentioned by the ruling government
in the last week address were constructed by the previous PDP governments in
the state”. He said.
Speaking on
Education, the PDP condemned
the prolonged crisis between the
teachers and the government over
the assessment test and asked the government to organize seminars
and to
educate the teachers on the
administration new policy rather
than witchhunting the teachers through
the assessment test which they believed the government want to use as a basis to
sack some of them.
“ We are not against teachers assessment but
the government rather than using
force on the teachers to organize
training and retraining for the
teachers, PDP ruled the state for seven and half years and there was never a
time the teachers union were shabbily treated like this” Chief
Aribisogan maintained.While condemning the lingering crisis between the government and the Local government Union ,PDP spokesman said” Ekiti state PDP condemn the continued strangulation of the third tier of government by Gov. Fayemi and therefore called on the local government union to remain resolute in their resolve to press home their demand”. Adding that “they must be prepared to fight the repressive and oppressive government. We also call on the people to reject all the draconian policies of the government that has impoverish them” he said.
The PDP further accuse the government of “ wasting the
resources of the state on mundane and cosmetic
projects such as its urban renewal programme, distribution of paracetamol
and ampicilin to people in the name
of health care delivery, distribution of
N1 million naira to each of the wards in
the name of empowerment , painting and
roofing of the schools in the name of improving
the education sector; donating
the sum of N5000 to selected ACN members
as social security for the aged
and above all lining the pocket of his
friends and cronies through over
invoicing and inflated contract”.
While appealing to the people of Ekiti state the party
spokesman said “ the state is writhing in pains under Dr Kayode Fayemi who has disappointed his own
party and the people of the state, we are appealing to the people of the state to bear this unbearable
pain and pangs which the Action Congress
of Nigeria ACN has inflicted on them and begin to look at the direction of our
party for a new government in the state
come 2014.”Chief Aribisogan however debunked the insinuation that the party is enmesh in crisis as he said that all the factional crisis have been settled and the executives of the party have been recognized by all the leaders. He also disclosed that the return of the former governor Ayo Fayose will boost the party’s chance of recapturing the state in 2014. “Former governor Ayo Fayose is a grassroots mobilizer and politician his return into the PDP will add value to the party and do us a lot of good in 2014.
