The All Progressives Congress (APC), has wondered why Ekiti state governor, Ayo Fayose, is vocal about the removal of the Chairman of the Independent Electoral Commission, Prof. Attahiru Jega.

According to the APC, since Fayose wasn’t responsible for appointing Jega, his standpoint on the matter remains inconsequential in the scheme of things.

The opposition party was reacting to the statement by the governor on Wednesday, March 4, when he stated that the APC was full of noise and ‘heavens will not fall’ if President Jonathan wishes to sack Jega.

In a response through the National Publicity Secretary, Lai Mohammed, the opposition party asked: “Is Fayose the appointer of Jega? What is his (Fayose’s) business there”

“We know why Fayose is so vociferous; it is because he attained the Office of the Governor through army rigging.”

“Fayose knows he can’t win any free and fair election. This is why he’s crying more than the bereaved. He’s afraid that the truth has come out. No matter how long it takes, the truth will prevail.”
