The All Progressives Congress in Ekiti State has accused the Minister of Police Affairs, Caleb Olukolade, of “a clandestine move” to arrange a fake kidnap of some Peoples Democratic Party leaders in the state so as to implicate the Governor Kayode Fayemi-led administration.
The state Chairman of APC, Chief Jide Awe, while addressing journalists at the party secretariat on Monday, said, “We reliably gathered that Olubolade is making frantic move to hatch an evil plan to cause confusion in our state.
“There is a clandestine move by the Peoples Democratic Party to kidnap some of their leaders, particularly the chairman of the PDP in Ekiti State with a claim that the kidnap is carried out by our party.
“What we are doing presently is a preventive measure. Our own network convinces us that this is what they are planning to do. We know about the meeting that Olubolade held in Ekiti West and other parts of Ekiti State to hatch the plan.
“We warn that this may cause instability in government. Already, we have contacted the Police and we are going to write them a letter officially.”
Olubolade in a telephone interview on Monday, however, denied the allegation.
“They should find something useful to do. They should engage themselves in useful ventures that could benefit the state. They owe the people the duty to develop the state,” he said.
