Ekiti: Details of the firebrand between Mr. Lere Olayinka of the PDP and Mr. Femi Ajiniran of the E-11 on Channels TV's sunrise daily this morning.Ajiniran of E-11: "We are not Politicians. I am not a card-carrying member of any Political Party. But we have discovered that we can't achieve our aim without getting involved in politics. That's why we allowed our members to participate in politics."Ajiniran of E-11: "I am an investor, I do business. I do empowerment. I have empowered a lot of people. E-11 is apolitical."Ajiniran: "There are many governorship Aspirants in PDP. We wanted one of them, but sadly, the person chosen, to us, was an aberration. We wanted either Adeyeye or Omoyeni or Olubolade to run against Fayemi."Maupe Ogun of Channles: "But the people of Ekiti elected the person you said he's not elect-able overwhelmly?Ajiniran of the E-11: "the population of Ekiti State is more than the 203, 000, 120, 000 and 18,000 people that voted for Fayose, Fayemi and Bamidele respectively. The results of the election does not reflect the wishes of Ekiti people both home and in DIASPORA. Ekiti people in Ekiti, Nigeria and outside the nigeria are about 6million. The decision of those that voted does not reflect the wishes of every reasonable Ekiti people"Channels TV: Why are you fighting Ayo Fayose?Ajiniran of E-11: We applied to INEC for the credentials of Ayo Fayose and other candidates. It was then that we discovered that Fayose was not qualified to contest.Channels TV to Ajiniran: Your group claimed to be apolitical, but all your activities are in favour of one political party?Ajiniran of E-11: PDP members in E-11 suggested Adeleye, Omoyeni, or Olubolade. A week to the election, they came back to tell us that feelers from Abuja favours Fayose. When Fayose finally emerged, they all supported him.

Lere Olayinka: If Ajiniran had impacted positively on the lives of the people of ijesa Isu, they would have voted for Fayemi, and not Fayose. E-11 sees Ekiti as their ATM which Fayose is against.Ajiniran: Lere Olayinka is a politician, I am not going to react to his statement. Maupe Ogun of Channels TV: Mr. Ajiniran, with the way you have been talking, are you sure you that are not a politician?Ajiniran: No, I am not.Channels TV: Are you not considering the consequences of your action? Ajiniran: The people that voted for Fayose are not the majority of Ekiti people. The election was free, but I may not say if it is fair. Maupe ogun of Channels: How many are you in E-11:Ajiniran: We were about 200 before, but we are now 57.Maupe Ogun: So You are this small, and you have turned Ekiti into chaos? Ajiniran: we have not turned Ekiti into chaos. Channels TV: You claimed to be in court before the election over Fayose's integrity. But a day after the election, you congratulated Fayose unbehalf of E-11. How can you congratulate someone you had dragged to court over his questionable integrity? Is this not double-standard? Ajiniran: hmmmmmmmm.....after we congratulated Fayose, we were told that the election was not free and fair.Maupe Ogun: Mr. Ajiniran, you said after you have congratulated, you started getting reports of how people were intimidated. What's your business with that? Does that not contradict your claim of being apolitical?Lere Olayinka: The E-11 case is zero. Is either their Lawyers are deceiving or they want to put in Ekiti in crisis. Section 182 of the 1999 constitution that they relied on had been deleted by the alteration 19 in 2010. They can go check.Compiled by Solanke Taiwo Teemoney
