There appears to be no end in sight to the current face-off between
the 19 All Progressives Congress (APC) lawmakers in the Ekiti State
House of Assembly and Ekiti state Governor, Ayodele Fayose READ MORE:
Twenty minutes after leaving a church service where the
clergyman advised the governor to embrace peace by reconciling with APC
lawmakers, Gov. Fayose made a live broadcast on the Ekiti State Radio
and Television (ESRT) where he told Ekiti people to defend their mandate
from the APC lawmakers, who he claimed were coming to invade the state
to impeach him today Vanguard reports.
But the lawmakers are insisting on going ahead with the removal of Fayose and his deputy, Dr Kolapo Olusola.
This is coming barely 48 hours after Fayose promised to dialogue with the aggrieved lawmakers.

To ensure that the APC lawmakers would not achieve their motive,
the Okada riders association and the commercial transport workers
operating in the state are toeing the path of the governor by telling
their members to converge on the premises of the state House of Assembly
today at 6 a.m and defend the mandate freely given to Fayose and his
deputy during the June 21, 2014 governorship election.
During the governor’s live broadcast, he told the people to
defend their mandate from the invading APC lawmakers and defend him
against the alleged impeachment.
He urged drivers and Okada riders in particular to move out en-masse to defend his mandate, saying, “My mandate is your mandate and you must defend it.”
Barely 10 minutes after, two statements emerged on the state radio as public announcements that were being broadcast intermittently.
Below are the transcripts of the two statements from the drivers union and Okada riders association:
“All Okada riders in Ekiti State are enjoined to be on the look-out for strange faces in the state from tomorrow. This is because it has been gathered that APC lawmakers working with Dr Adewale Omirin are planning to truncate the peace of the state by invading the state with armed thugs.
