BREAKING: APC Accuses Fayose of Lying about Acquittal on N1.3bn Poultry Fraud

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, of lying about his acquittal on a N1.3 billion poultry fraud charge.

Fayose had earlier claimed that he was acquitted of the fraud charge by a Federal High Court in Lagos, but the APC has described the claim as false and misleading.

In a statement issued by the APC's National Publicity Secretary, Lanre Issa-Onilu, the party said that Fayose's claim was a desperate attempt to deceive the public and tarnish the image of the judiciary.

"The APC wishes to correct the false information being peddled by Fayose that he has been acquitted of the N1.3 billion poultry fraud charge. This is a blatant lie and a desperate attempt to deceive the public and tarnish the image of the judiciary," the statement read.

The party said that Fayose's acquittal was still pending before the court and that the case was adjourned to a later date for further hearing.

"We urge Fayose to stop spreading falsehood and to allow the court to take its course. The APC will not be distracted by Fayose's antics and will continue to hold him accountable for his actions," the statement added.

The APC's accusation comes as a surprise to many, as Fayose had earlier claimed that he was acquitted of the fraud charge and had even celebrated his supposed acquittal on social media.

However, the APC's statement has raised questions about the true status of Fayose's case and whether he has indeed been acquitted of the fraud charge.

It remains to be seen how Fayose will respond to the APC's accusation, but one thing is certain - the controversy surrounding his case is far from over.
