Ekiti state Assembly orders IG of Police to arrest former state governor and Minister of Mineral Resources, Kayode Fayemi
Ekiti State House of Assembly has asked the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris, to arrest the former governor of the state now Minister of Solid Minerals, Kayode Fayemi, over his failure to appear before the house to answer to allegations of fraudulent practices carried out while he was governor of the state.
The house is acting on a petition from the Fayose led administration that is accusing Fayemi of corruption during his tenure from 2010 to 2014. Addressing newsmen in the state yesterday, chairman of the House Committee on Information, Samuel Omotosho, directed the Inspector General of Police, through the Ekiti State commissioner of police, to immediately ensure that Fayemi is brought before the house to answer to all the allegations.
He noted that the former state governor was invited three times but he never honored the invitations. Quoting section 129(1) of the Nigerian Constitution as the source of the house power for ordering the arrest of the former governor, Omotosho said
"These allegations include financial mismanagement, misapplication and misappropriation of funds, diversion of LG funds, contract splitting and criminal mismanagement of the UBEC counterpart fund described as a serious financial crime by Dr. Dikko Suleiman, the executive secretary of UBEC, which has made UBEC to blacklist Ekiti State since 2013 under Section 9 (B) of the UBEC Act 2004, with serious collateral damage on the education sector, the pupils, teachers, parents and local contractors,” he said

Lady narrates how a robber who disguised as a NEPA official lured her out of her office and stole her phones
Instagram user, Nylah shared this photo of an alleged robber whom she said came to her office disguised as a NEPA official only to steal her mobile phones when he lured her outside the building. Read what she wrote below;
"I am not one to do this or share unverified information but since this happened to me I am going to share it. This criminal walked into my office under the pretense of being a Nepa official yes i asked for identification and he said it was in his truck that they were doing some work and noticed that the building next door had wires hanging into ours
and he needed to verify the connection . He had a screw driver and folded wires in his hand. stole my phone from my desk after luring me out. He kept insisting we should turn off the generator because he suspected we had cctv (thankfully I didn't) guys be on the look out and don't doubt your instincts because I did. Too many lazy hungry people out there. If he needed something to eat, I would have fed him from the restaurant easy. Lesson learned."

"It is within the law and I believe before the 10th, it will be sorted out. Him acting this long is not unprecedented. What people forget is Justice Idris Kutigi got into position after acting. It does not matter how long but there is a precedence that a CJN had acted and the law says a CJN can act for three months. It is not three months yet. If it is 10th February now and it is not done, then of course yes it becomes an issue"he said
