Feyisetan Fayose, the better half of Ekiti State governor Ayodele Fayose, will soon be keeping a date with the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Punch reports that the Ekiti first lady has been roped into her husband’s current woes with the law, after it was found that N100m sum made it into an account she jointly runs with the governor.
According to the story, the money emanated from the account of the office of Sambo Dasuki, former national security adviser; and was paid into the Zenith Bank account of Spotless Investment Limited on June 17, 2014, less than a week before the June 21 governorship election in Ekiti.
The money was paid into the company’s account with bank teller number 0540997 by one Abiodun Agbele, the governor’s associate.
The two signatories to Spotless Investment Limited’s account are said to be Fayose and his wife.
“N100m was paid into the Spotless Investment Limited account with number 1010170969 at Zenith Bank. The two signatories are Fayose, with Bank Verification Number 22338867502, and his wife, Helen Olayemi, with BVN 22298990256,” the newspaper quoted a detective as saying.
As a sitting governor, Fayose cannot be prosecuted or arrested because he enjoys immunity under the constitution.
“His wife, however, has no immunity”, the detective reportedly said.
