Ekiti
State Governor Ayodele Fayose has protested that his security details
are yet to be restored 72 hours after the conduct of the governorship
election in the state.
The security details of the governor and others, including those of the candidate of the APC in the election, Dr Kayode Fayemi, were withdrawn prior to the Saturday election.

Fayose, who made his first public appearance in Ado Ekiti on Tuesday,
was given a heroic welcome by the people in areas such as Okesa, Oja
Bisi, Ojaba, Irona and Oke Oriomi.
He went to the palace of the Ewi of Ado-Ekiti, Oba Rufus Adeyemo Adejugbe Aladesanmi 111, where he lodged the protest.
“The poll has come and gone irrespective of what we went through. The constitution says I am still the governor till October 16 this year. Our state radio and television stations have been shut down. And there has been no means of getting across to our people. “All my security men have been withdrawn since last Wednesday. I am only left with just a few,” he said.
Oba Adejugbe, in his reply, thanked God that nobody died during the poll and appealed to security agencies to restore Fayose’s security personnel as the sitting governor.
“I will convey your message to the Oloye of Oye-Ekiti, who is the Chairman of the Ekiti State Council of Traditional Rulers and we spoke this morning and we were worried about your whereabouts.”
