Former Governor of Ekiti State, Kayode Fayemi, has refuted claims by ex-Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, that they initiated discussions on forming an opposition coalition.
Amaechi, while speaking during an 𝕏 Space session on Saturday, had alleged that he and Fayemi began talks on the coalition before involving other politicians.
“Fayemi and I began the coalition discussion, and we subsequently agreed to broaden it so that it would involve more than just the two of us talking about starting a new party,” Amaechi was quoted as saying.
Reacting on Sunday, Fayemi’s Media Office, through its head, Ahmad Sajoh, described the claim as false and misleading.
Sajoh noted that in the era of fabricated or distorted statements being attributed to public figures, the former governor was cautious about engaging in “manufactured controversies designed to provoke or profit.”
“It is possible that Hon. Amaechi did not make the statement or was misquoted,” he said.
The statement stressed that Fayemi remains a committed member and leader of the All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State and has never wavered in his loyalty to the party.
“At various public forums, he has consistently affirmed his dedication to the party, working to address its challenges and advance its progressive ideals for Nigeria. Nothing has changed,” Sajoh added.
