The Director-General of the Segun Oni Campaign Organization, SOCO, Dr. Ife Arowosoge has said the rejection of Governor Ayo Fayose’s car gift was done in the interest of Ekiti workers.
Arowosoge, who spoke during the inauguration of the Advisory Committee of the group, charged them to ensure the emergence of Segun Oni at the primary election scheduled to hold in April, 2018.
Governor Fayose had last month presented all former governors of the state except Dr Kayode Fayemi with a car gift.
The Director General said: “Though, Fayose meant well with the gift, but the question is why does he have to wait till this time before giving out the cars.
“The former governors are entitled to it, it is their right and privilege, not only the car, but residential houses, even at the Federal Capital. Why then does he have to wait till when he has less than a year to leave the office before recognising them?
“The timing to give out a jeep of about N52 million at the time state, local government workers, and pensioners were being owed for several months were what we quarrelled with and not the gift.”
