Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti State has warned his aides against further verbal attack on the person and government of Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State.
Fayose’s comment was in reaction to a rejoinder to the Edo helmsman by one of his aide, Lere Olayinka over the crisis in the Houses of Assembly of both states.
The statement was titled ‘Go and Die’ Governor should keep shut.
In a statement issued in Ado Ekiti on Friday, the governor said that the media attack on Oshiomhole was the result of the zealousness of his (Fayose’s) aides and said he had asked them to stop forthwith.
Fayose disclosed that he had to “tender unreserved apology to the Governor of Edo State, Adams Oshiomhole, for the actions of some of his aides who might have, out of zealousness, disrespected or dragged the person of the governor of Edo State in the issues of Ekiti House of Assembly.”
He said that he “has great respect for Governor Oshiomhole” adding that “any attempt by any of my aides to insult or disrespect any personality like Governor Oshiomole would attract severe disciplinary action.”
Continuing he said, “Issues in Ekiti State should stop in Ekiti State and should not go beyond Ekiti State and no personality should be dragged or insulted in issues that don’t concern them. We may today have party differences but our goal must be targeted at service to humanity”, he concluded in the statement.
