The Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has painted former President Olusegun Obasanjo of having defrauded all the governors under the canopy of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) when he was President in 2005, by compelling them to part with N10m each with which he bult his library complex in Abeokuta, Ogun State.
The library was commissioned with fanfare over the weekend as part of the activities marking his 80th birthday anniversary.
Governor Fayose insisted that Obasanjo committed what he called ‘the greatest fraud,’ even as he asked the former president to return his donation as a matter of urgency with interest.
The governor spoke in Ado-Ekiti yesterday, Monday at the opening session of the PDP Southwest stakeholders’ meeting.
He advised former President Obasanjo to stop seeing himself as a saint, insisting: “we were compelled to make the donation as PDP governors in 2005 and now I need the return of my money with interest.” [myad]
