Wole Balogun, Ado-Ekiti

Governor Kayode Fayemi of Ekiti State, on Monday, berated his predecessor in office, Ayodele Fayose, for allegedly abandoning the Ikogosi Resort Centre under his watch.

Governor Fayemi said the neglect of the tourist centre, which he described as a ‘major attraction’ in the country, was a flagrant and brazen ‘destruction of Ekiti’s heritage’.

The governor spoke in Ikogosi-Ekiti in Ekiti West Local Government Area of the state during the inspection of the facilities at the Ikogosi Warm Spring,  which was a confluence of warm and cold spring .

Governor Fayemi also visited the Arinta Water Fall site in Ipole Iloro, with the intention to build Ekiti’s tourism potential to boost Internally Generated Revenue (IGR) of the state.

The governor said it was wrong for the immediate past administration in the state to have abandoned the warm spring site and ran the Gossy warm water being produced from the spring off the market under the guise that the project was midwife by the preceding government.

Fayemi’s words, “I want to express my anger with what I have seen here today. I am really upset.

“You all witnessed the spate of development here in 2014, you knew the patronage this facility was enjoying.

“What I met here today means to me a destruction of  Ekiti’s heritage, destruction of our commonwealth .

“It was unfortunate that our government had become so careless to allow this major tourist attraction and revenue earners for Ekiti to destroy and decay.

“This could have been avoided if the last government had maintained the facilities therein, because it involved Ekiti’s  money.

“It is not only the leadership that  was  culpable, the management of this place too should be held accountable, though I agree that leadership defines everything.  Now, everything is in shambles.

“But my belief has been that a major tourist attraction like this shouldn’t be left in the hands of  government alone to manage,” he stated.

Governor Fayemi assured  that the Gossy water project , owned by the United Africa Company (UAC) that had  left the market due to government’s unfavourable disposition, would be brought back.

“Gossy water is associated with Ekiti, is a brand that was known to belong and part of Ekiti.

“Wherever you see the water, you will think of Ikogosi Warm Spring, so we are going to bring it back to live.

“Apart from the fact that the facilities in this resort had damaged, the roads to this place are impassable, particularly the Aramoko-Erinjiyan-Ikogosi road.

“Half of the 110 rooms in this resort are not habitable , this is unacceptable to us.

“This is not what Ekiti was known for, this is not what we are, because we used to manage the little we have.

“That the immediate past government doesn’t responsible for the turnaround of this resort doesn’t mean it should be abandoned.

“I believe the immediate past government ought to improve on the development we brought here before we left in 2014 and not to allow it to damage.

“I can’t because of politics cancel the Gifted Academy  in Afao Ekiti, I can’t demolish the flyover and the new governor’s office built by the past administration, I can only improve on them and that is what governance is all about.

“The projects of this state belong to the generality of Ekiti people and not  to the governors  and every government must neither abandon them nor allow them to destroy just because they are not the initiators”.
