The personal
account of the Governor of Ekiti State, Mr Ayodele Fayose and that of his
associates have been frozen by the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission(EFCC), Vanguard news is reporting.
Speaking at the premises of Zenith Bank, Ado-Ekiti,
where he had his personal account, the governor claimed that he had gotten
winds of plans by the Presidency to freeze his account some days earlier.
A
source at the Bank told the visibly surprised Governor Fayose that his account
was allegedly frozen on the order of the anti-graft agency. The Governor said,
he had earlier issued a counter-cheque to make withdrawal and was rejected by
the bank located at Onigari , GRA in Ado Ekiti, describing the action as
criminal and illegal. Citing Section 308 of the 1999 constitution, Fayose said he
enjoys immunity as a sitting governor , urging the federal government to fight
corruption within the ambit of the law.
