EFCC Seals Filling Station Allegedly Owned By Fayose

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), on Wednesday, reportedly sealed off a fuel station purportedly belonging to the Governor of Ekiti, Ayodele Fayose.

The filling station, identified as ‘Chance Oil’ which is located at Lambe, Akute area of Ogun State, was said to have been sealed off by operatives of the commission for reasons yet unknown.
Meanwhile, Fayose, through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka‎, said the EFCC is not doing its homework.

He said, “It is ridiculous ‎to say such thing about a person that has been governor for two years. How would you say Governor Fayose has a filling station at Akute?

“If he would have had a filling ‎station, he would have had it along Lagos – Ibadan express road, at Lekki and other high brow areas and not Akute. Does he even have any link with Akute?

“Governor Fayose would rather‎ have something like NNPC mega station, which would have like at least 20 pumps. He has been a successful businessman before becoming governor.

This would not be the first time the governor will have a brush with the commission, especially regarding the sealing off of his purported properties and freezing his Zenith Bank account.
