Former Governor of Ekiti State, Dr.
Kayode Fayemi, on Tuesday, debunked
reports that he ran the economy of his
state aground, while he served as
governor.
Fayemi, one of the 10 ministerial
nominees currently being screened by the
Senate today, said he governed Ekiti with
transparency and accountability.
Responding to a thought-provoking
question asked him by Sen. Olusola
Adeyeye (APC Osun Central) to clarify
newspaper reports that he left Ekiti in
debt, that he spent too much money on
the Ekiti Govt House, Fayemi said they
were all rumours, stating that the
government house was built with just
N2.5 billion.
The ex-governor said being one of the
youngest states in Nigeria,without a
government house for 19 years, the
magnificent Government House he saw in
Akwa Ibom, when he visited former
Governor Godswill Akpabio, enticed him
to embark on the project to give Ekiti
State, a befitting Government House.
Fayemi added that the controversial N50
million bed in the government house
wasn’t purchased at that price.
According to him, none of the beds in the
government house cost above N1.5
million.
