Fayose denies firing political aide

Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has denied dismissing his Special Adviser on Political Matters, Alhaji Ademola Bello....


There was a rumour in Ado Ekiti on Tuesday that Bello had been dismissed by the governor over an undisclosed allegation.

Fayose in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, said the news which had gone viral on social media platforms was a blatant lie orchestrated by those who insisted in distabilising his administration.

“Alhaji Bello is at his duty post and at the pleasure of Mr Governor.

These same elements a few weeks back spread a fake news that the Secretary to Ekiti State Government, Dr Mrs Modupe Alade, had resigned, whereas the woman had gone a two weeks vacation.

“We implore the people to ignore these people who are disturbed by the performance and ever growing popularity of Governor Ayodele Fayose.”
