Wole Balogun, Ado-Ekiti

Ekiti State Governor-elect, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, on Wednesday, reassured the people of the state that he would not disappoint them for the confidence reposed in him.

He said he would not fail the people considering the  experience he had got as a former governor of the state, which he said, had afforded him a deep knowledge about the state.

Fayemi also nursed the fear about the possibility of the Debt Management Office(DMO) under-declaring the state’s debt under Governor Ayodele Fayose, saying he would probe into the issue to be able to get first-hand information about the state’s fiscal strength to guide him when assume office.

The governor-elect spoke, on Wednesday, after inaugurating the Kayode Fayemi/APC Governorship Transition Committee, headed by Sen. Olubunmi Adetumbi, in Ado-Ekiti.

The 32-member committee is to interface with the present Government and dialogue with other interest groups on how his government can hit the ground running when inaugurated on October 16.

Fayemi appealed to Fayose to spend 80 per cent of the monies accruing to the state to defray backlog of salaries and pensions to improve the welfare of workers and masses in general.

He commended Ekiti people for reposing confidence in the party while also lauding the resilience of party members and commitment which he said brought about the overwhelming victory the party recorded on July 14 governorship election in the state.

Fayemi urged the committee members to exhibit spirit of patriotism by being painstaking in scrutinising the financial dealings of the present government and how best to approach the policies for the benefit of Ekiti people.

He said the composition of the panel should not be misinterpreted to mean that those that would form the cabinet had already been identified, advising that “people should not use them to begin to draw permutations on our appointments will look like”.

The governor-elect added: “Let me say this, neither my Deputy Governor-elect, Chief Bisi Egbeyemi, and myself considered ourselves as having repository of knowledge or  have answers to all Ekiti’s problems, so we are relying on your wealth of experiences.

“In your report, tell us those things we should not lay our hands on at all. Also endeavour to indicate those things we can do to have immediate impacts on our people when we assume office, that is the most important thing to the incoming government.

“If you look at the configuration of this committee, we have more financial experts with deep knowledge of fiscal issues.

“There  are four former Commissioners, because finance is the main thing in Ekiti on the premise  that our situations have worsened  than we left it on October 2014.

“Our people are in serious mess, poverty has risen  and we have to move fast and ameliorate their sufferings .

“I want to appeal to the present government, particularly the Ekiti workers to cooperate with the committee in the spirit of patriotism.

They should think more about Ekiti interest than that of any individual.

“I see no reason why Fayose’s government would not want to cooperate with you, because this was what we did in 2014 and which the whole Nigeria commended.”

Fayemi directed the committee to submit its interim report on August 24 and final report on September 7, 2018.

Adetumbi, who commended Fayemi for counting them worthy, assured Fayose’s government that the committee will act as more of a friend than an enemy.

“We want to assure the good citizens of Ekiti State that we are not going to act as enemies or adversaries. We are going to be friendly and that we shall do for the benefit of our State”, he said.
