Embattled Governor of Ekiti State, Mr Ayodele Fayose, on Thursday,
reacted to the reported denial of Zenith Bank Plc in the funding of
his election in 2014, challenging the bank to come out with an official
statement on the matter.
The Governor was reacting to eports in the media, that the bank had denied funding his election.
Fayose, who spoke through his Chief Press Secretary, Mr
Idowu Adelusi, in Ado Ekiti said: “I stand with my claim that Zenith
Bank Plc majorly funded my election in June 2014.
The statement reads: “I don’t expect an organisation like
Zenith Bank to stay in a corner in matter of national concern like this
and be talking.
“Rather, I expect the Zenith Bank to issue an official
statement not as feeble as this one being peddled in the media so that I
can begin the second stage of my revelations.
“My statement was made in the open and if I can accuse an
institution like Zenith Bank in the open, I expect the institution to
give official reply and not one online medium claiming sources in the
bank.
“All what have been claimed to have been said by the Zenith
Bank in the media can be situated in the realm of rumour because an
organisation like Zenith Bank won’t react to issues through sources.
“And I want to refer the APC, the Zenith Bank and the EFCC
to John chapter 8 verses 6-7, which says, ‘This they said, tempting him,
that they might have to accuse him. But Jesus stooped down and with his
finger wrote on the ground, as though he heard them not. When they
continued asking him, he lifted up himself and said unto them, he that
is without sin among you, let him cast the first stone.
“Let those who are orchestrating this know that failure awaits them.”
