“Fayemi has only demonstrated the wickedness in his heart by sacking Ekiti sons and daughters who were duly employed by the state government.

“It will be on record that the PDP government of Ayodele Fayose gave jobs to over 2,000 unemployed youths in Ekiti while the APC government of Kayode Fayemi sacked them," Olayinka said.

He also warned that whoever applauds the "show of wickedness will be reminded in future when actions of Fayemi will also be reviewed."

“As for those sons and daughters of Ekiti who have now become victims of Fayemi’s wickedness and political vendetta, they should place their hope in God and enforce their rights to seek redress in the court of law," he said.

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that Fayemi had on Thursday, January 24, said that his predecessor left a total debt profile of over N155.79 billion for the state.

This is as the governor signed into law, the N129.9 billion state budget for 2019, as part of events to mark his 100 days in office.

While giving account of his stewardship in Ado Ekiti, Fayemi said that the debt profile included local loans and other debts.
