#Ekitigate: Fayose, Aluko, others must enter #prisongate – Nigerians tell Buhari

Following stunning revelations made by Dr Temitope Aluko, the secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Ekiti state, Nigerians have called for the prosecution of Governor Ayodele Fayose.

Aluko during an interview on Sunday, January 31, 2016, revealed that Nigeria’s former president, Goodluck Jonathan, allegedly gave $37 million to Fayose to rig last year’s election in Ekiti state, a situation which he (Aluko) claimed, was aided by other factors.

Temitope Aluko, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) secretary who opened up how the Ekiti state governorship election was rigged.

Although Fayose’s aide has since denied the reports, Nigerians believe the Ekiti governor must be jailed following the revelations by the PDP man as it is a confirmation of the video of some top military officials discussing how to rig the election, which had gone viral after the election.

Some of the reactions from Twitter are as follows:

One of the reasons people
hate politics is that truth is
rarely a politician’s objective.
Election and power are. #EkitiGate

#EkitiGate TKO admitted on tape that he committed perjury. 3 years imprisonment with hard labor is the right penalty

The unending revelation of #EkitiGate agrees with fact that the past years of governance in Nigeria have been rocked with serious impunity.
