The Ekiti State House of Assembly has summoned the immediate past Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose to appear before it to throw light on the alleged misappropriation of local government funds while in office.

The Assembly had in December, 18 2018 suspended indefinitely all the 16 Council Chairmen and 177 Councilors to pave way for forensic audit of the councils’ account over alleged fraud. Olajide said the suspended chairmen during an appearance before the Committee confessed to have diverted funds of their councils on monthly basis to an account but said the action was in compliance with the directive of the immediate past governor.

The motion for the summon was moved by the House Leader of government Business, Hon Gboyega Aribisogan on the recommendation of the report of Ad-hoc Committee set up to probe the hurried passage of the 2018 revised Appropriation law. Mrs Ayokunle alleged that Lere Olayinka mismanaged the fund of BSES where he served as Director General thus subjecting the organization to serious debt.She claimed that Olayinka purchased two cellphones at the sum of #430,000 and approved for himself a traveling allowance of #7m and accomodation fees running to #14m.
