ADO-EKITI—THE Ekiti State Government, yesterday, dismissed a newspaper report insinuating that Governor Kayode Fayemi failed to see President Muhammadu Buhari at the Aso Villa, describing the report as misleading. The state government, however, accused a senior Presidential aide of planting the story “after it was rejected by some State House Correspondents, who rebuffed the former lawmaker for the misleading and malicious story.” In a statement by the governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Yinka Oyebode, the state government said: “The attention of the general public is being drawn to a misleading publication by a national newspapers online with headline “Fayemi’s failed mission to Villa with Giadom”, published on Wednesday, June 24th, 2020.
