The executive governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose has expressed disappointment over the painful demise of a former governor Bayelsa State, Depreye Alamieyeseigha.
The governor expressed disappointment on how the government is giving her own people to outsiders for prosecution.
He noted that the late Alamieyeseigha was harassed to death by apostles of political vendetta, adding that the late former governor was intimidated.
Fayose said “Now that Alamieyeseigha has been hounded and harassed to death, what else can the apostles of political vendetta do?
“Having been tried and convicted eight years ago, served his sentence and forfeited properties to the Bayelsa State Government; I thinks Alamieyeseigha should have been allowed to live his life without unnecessary political intimidation and harassment.
“It is only here in Nigeria that we send our own people away to be killed by outsiders. Even Umaru Dikko was protected in by the UK govt.
“I am not against d fight against corruption,but it is painful that political vendetta is being allowed to override the sovereignty of the country, such that the Presidency was eager to release to a foreign country, a Nigerian that had been tried, convicted and later pardoned.
“I have consistently asked them why they have closed their eyes to the corruption allegations against their own people
“My prayer is that God in His infinite mercies will console the entire Alamieyeseigha’s family and the people of Bayelsa State”
