It was during the height of the preparations for the change of government, with many activities and programmes lined up as part of the event.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA key member of the APC, Dr Fayemi was already committed to playing important roles at these events and his non-appearance would have impacted them significantly. Understanding the significance of his commitments at that time, Dr Fayemi duly notified the EFCC of his willingness to cooperate but requested a more suitable date for his appearance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The statement said, Fayemi, on Thursday, accompanied by his counsel, visited the EFCC office in Ilorin, and engaged in fruitful discussions with the investigators before being allowed to depart after a few hours.<\/p>\n<p>It added, \u201cWe firmly believe that Dr Fayemi\u2019s visit has provided answers to the agency\u2019s inquiries regarding the petition. However, should there be a need for further clarification, Dr Fayemi stands ready to cooperate fully.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe wish to note, too, that contrary to the news that made the rounds about a purported N4b fraud case against Dr Fayemi, no such allegation was raised in his conversation with the EFCC.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll he did was respond to a frivolous petition from a faceless group, the so-called Ekiti Patriotic Coalition, which we strongly believed is a front for some anti-Fayemi politicians, who are trying to soil the former governor\u2019s good name and image.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The statement said throughout Fayemi\u2019s tenure, he served the people of Ekiti State with utmost dedication and was renowned for his principled leadership.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs governor, he consistently demonstrated a profound commitment to the welfare of the citizens, driving notable advancements in infrastructure development and attracting valuable investment opportunities to the state.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe affirm that Dr Fayemi will continue to uphold the highest standards of integrity that he\u2019s known for, and we trust that the truth will prevail in due course,\u201d the statement said.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr. Kayode Fayemi, the former governor of Ekiti State and former chairman of the Nigerian Governors&#8217; Forum, denied he was being investigated by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission for a purported N4 billion scam.
