UPDATE | How the Billions Fayose got from Goodluck Jonathan Was Shared Secretly

A former Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti State, Dr. Temitope Aluko, has revealed that Ekiti state Governor, Ayo Fayose and ex-Minister of State (Defence) Musiliu Obanikoro, actually clashed over the huge cash deployed for the June 21, 2014 governorship poll in the state.

Aluko, who disclosed this during a live interview programme on ADABA 88.9 FM, said Zenith Bank did not sponsor Governor Fayose's election campaign as he had earlier claimed. The details...

He said that Zenith Bank only gave Fayose N200 million after he had won the governorship election.

Aluko, who claimed that Fayose did not have up to N10m in his personal account before contesting the Ekiti election in 2014, added that the governor’s primary election was sponsored by Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria (TAN) and the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).

He said it was after Fayose had won the primary election that cash from the Office of the National Security Adviser (ONSA) and oil contractors was deployed to fund the election campaign.

He said Zenith Bank and others came with business proposals after Fayose had won the election, insisting that the governor’s claim that his campaign was sponsored by Zenith Bank was a “blatant lie.”

Aluko said during the interview that Fayose purchased 5 houses with the N2.3bn, which was a remainder of the slush funds from ONSA in choice locations in Abuja, Banana Island and VI in Lagos.

On the feud between Fayose and Obanikoro on the arms cash, Aluko stated that a crisis of confidence broke out between both men following discovery that there was a shortfall of N80million in the money ferried by plane through Akure for the governorship election.

He said: “The [Jonathan] Presidency gave us security and money, the money was sent from a Diamond Bank branch through an account run by Sylvan MacNamara, a company owned by Obanikoro.

“My boss (Fayose) said he wanted to get his own in cash and that was why arrangement was made to get his own in cash and that was why such a huge amount (N2.1 billion) was ferried by plane. Obanikoro cannot claim not to have brought the money.

“He (Fayose) chose his man, Abiodun Agbele, to keep the money in a Zenith Bank account and the money was lodged at Zenith Bank, Alagbaka Branch in Akure. The transaction was not recorded and it got to a stage when it was discovered that the money was short by N80 million.

“This caused a crisis between Fayose and Obanikoro who brought money thrice from Abuja. He (Obanikoro) brought other things apart from money which I won’t disclose now and it was from it that N1billion was released to INEC officials to manipulate Ekiti and Osun polls.

“Fayose was threatening former President Goodluck Jonathan that he (Fayose) must deliver so that Jonathan will win in Southwest. All the PDP elders were kept out of picture on the transactions and cash and some of the cash deployed did not get to their destinations.

“The cash carried on the plane was not entered into the plane manifest, the N2.1billion was delivered to a bank at 4:30am in Ekiti. The N2.3billion remaining from the total cash received for the election was used to buy house in Abuja and the house belongs to Fayose.

“Fayose purchased five houses in Victoria Island and Banana Island. The property in Dubai was purchased by a fellow who is known as Bisi in Ekiti but is known as Femi abroad.

"Questions are being asked on the N3billion used to purchase the Dubai property but I strongly believe that we will recover our money.”
