Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the sack of over 2,000 Ekiti workers by Governor Kayode Fayemi as an “act of wickedness against humanity”.
The party said this in a statement on Thursday by its state spokesman, Jackson Adebayo.
Commissioner for Information, Tourism and Values Orientation, Muyiwa Olumilua, had told journalists on Thursday that the recruitment exercise carried out by immediate past governor, Ayo Fayose, after July 2018 governorship election violated due process.
The statement said: “We want people to ask the government whether those they sacked didn’t purchase their application forms and got interviewed before their employment, or what other processes they didn’t pass through except the one the APC government in the state deliberately denied them.
“It’s on record that in the first regime of this same Governor Kayode Fayemi, plans were hatched to sack teachers and some workers which were vehemently resisted before he was booted out by vote in 2014.
“The sack of workers now is just the beginning of the actualisation of his first term agenda, hence all Ekiti people should understand that the Armageddon government has arrived.”
