“Fayose only wants to stain my image and malign my integrity,” Dr. Aluko denies reconciliation

   
Almost 48 hours after a video emerged of Gov. Fayose and a former Secretary of the Ekiti PDP, Tope Aluko, addressing the press, the latter has denied reconciling with the former. Aluko, who accused Gov. Fayose of rigging the Ekiti election, with the help of GEJ, says he still stands by his words.
While saying what happened on the day of the alleged reconciliation was a stage managed propaganda to stain his image and malign his integrity, he added that: “I received a call from two senior members of the party. I was told to come to the Eko Hotel to meet with them and I went in company with my wife.

We were halfway into the discussion, which they tagged as a ‘Peace parley’. I was shocked to see Gov Fayose walk into the meeting. At this point that my wife barged into the meeting to inform me that she noticed the presence of pressmen downstairs, saying, ‘there is a problem’, but Fayose interrupted her and said, ‘Madam, there is no problem’.

My wife insisted and said she overheard them saying that they were called back through an SMS from Gov Fayose, saying ‘come back because Aluko is around’. At that point, I became enraged and decided to leave the place but I noticed Gov. Fayose rushing after me downstairs in a Gestapo manner.

My wife was already fidgeting and was almost crying, and suddenly, I could not find her around me. Immediately, I realised that I needed to obey to Gov. Fayose’s instruction of facing the press because of the safety of my family.

One fact remains clear, at no time did I refute anything I had earlier said before Nigerians about the manipulations that characterised the 2014 governorship election in Ekiti State. I will like to apologise to all Nigerians that, perhaps, accepting the invitation was a tactical error.

Finally, I need to emphasise that all that transpired at the Eko Hotel on that fateful day was an organised propaganda to stain my image and malign my integrity.”…. I kno haters wld still say I’m lying….
