All Progressives Congress (APC) spokesman Mr. Segun Dipe said: “Fayemi has maintained his transparency and accountability without blemish on every financial transaction of his administration.” Dipe said the governor took only N25 billion and has completed over 1,300 projects across the state. He said the governor pioneered the e-governance system, in which every project executed by the government and its cost is accessible to the public on the internet. Dipe said Fayemi followed every regulation of the Fiscal Responsibility Act before taking the loan and remained true to the conditions of the grant that the sum would be committed to only capital projects. He said while some of the projects had started yielding fruits, nearly half the amount borrowed had been defrayed, adding that evidence abound across Ekiti that the governor took some money to finance certain capital projects. Dipe said: “Comparing Fayemi with Oni is like comparing light and darkness. Oni could not have approached any financial institution for a loan because it was an illegitimate government. The credibility deficit in his credential could not have allowed him to approach any financial institution. “People should realise that Fayemi’s achievements, including projects, were not financed by only the N25 billion. What we today see and point at as the governor’s achievements go beyond the projects upon which the borrowing was committed. “Can we deny that even before the fund was obtained, many projects, some of which were abandoned by past administrations, had been completed across the state? It is bad politics to give your political enemy a bad name because you want to defeat him.”
