Ekiti State governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose on Thursday in Okesa, Ado Ekiti
distributed cheques worth N200m to the second bash of landlords whose
properties are to give way for the construction of 1.2km Fajuyi/Ojumose
flyover.
Governor Fayose in his address thanked the chiefs and residents for their
understanding and cooperation with the assurance that his government’s
action is in Ekiti’s best interest.
The High Chief Asa of Okesa, Ado Ekiti, Chief Kayode Ogunleye who spoke on
behalf of the residents appreciated governor Fayose for living up to his
promise of paying compensation to property owners before demolishing their
properties also pleaded with the governor on behalf of the residents to
allow them exhume the remains of their buried ones before the commencement
of demolition, a request governor Fayose granted expressly.
