While addressing some journalists in Ado-Ekiti on Thursday, Lere Olayinka, Director of Media and Publicity of the Kolapo Olusola Campaign Organisation (KOCO), said the sum is part of the $321m recovered Abacha loot.
He claimed that $50m of the recovered fund was flown from Abuja to Akure Airport and afterwards to Fayemi’s hometown in Ekiti with two bullion vans to support the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate.
He said: “Last week Saturday, two bullion vehicles were moved to the Akure Airport to evacuate cash brought from Abuja by a chartered flight.
“The flight landed when it was raining and all staff members of the airport were barred from going near the aircraft while the cash was evacuated into the two bullion vehicles.
“After offloading the huge cash, the bullion van first moved to the Ondo State Government House in Akure from where they left for Isan Ekiti, the hometown of the APC governorship candidate, Dr Kayode Fayemi.
“It was withdrawn immediately and moved with a private jet to Akure. Also, apart from the N2.5bn, another $50m (about N18bn) was taken from the $321m recovered from the late Abacha family.
That's a heck of a money just to support a state for election..
Are they trying to buy the hearts of the Ekiti people??
