Concerns Raised Over Fayemi's Financial Dealings as Ekiti Governor
-
Fayemi stole N800 million from the Universal Basic Education Fund meant for primary schools. This led to Ekiti being banned from accessing the fund.
-
A judicial commission found Fayemi guilty of looting N2.5 billion. He was charged but claimed it was politically motivated.
-
Fayemi took a N20 billion loan to build an airport but did not complete it. He held a showcase opening shortly before leaving office.

Over N16.5 billion has been spent on the unfinished airport. Aare Afe Babalola donated over N2 billion to help complete it.
-
Concerned citizens petitioned the EFCC over looting of state funds. Fayemi obtained a court order to prevent being charged but investigation was already complete.
