Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has narrated how he was personally in the premises of the Ado-Ekiti branch of Zenith Bank to cash some money but was denied access to his account, suspecting that it was the handiwork of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
“If I sent somebody with a cheque, they could give excuse but I was there myself and acts of impunity such as this cannot continue. We will challenge them. This is the impunity we are condemning. The bank and the EFCC got all the judgments of the court, but the agency still harassed the bank to act against the law.”
Governor Fayose, who spoke to news men when he emerged from the bank’s premises in Ado-Ekiti today, Saturday, regretted that he was denied access to his account despite the court ruling that directed the EFCC to unfreeze the accounts. [myad]
