Lere Olayinka, media aide to Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose stated on Wednesday that a federal high court in Abuja has issued a bench warrant for former Peoples Democratic Party, PDP Scribe in Ekiti, Tope Aluko, for allegedly committing perjury over his role in the infamous Ekitigate scandal.

He stated this via his twitter handle moments ago.

According to him, a warrant of arrest has been issued for former PDP secretary in Ekiti state, Tope Aluko. This arrest warrant comes after he made allegations on the 2014 governorship election in the state while speaking on ChannelsTV on Sunday Janaury 31st.

Aluko alleged that the Ekiti state governorship election was rigged and that former president Goodluck Jonathan gave Fayose $35 million to rig the election.

The same Aluko had at a state election tribunal last year, testified that the election was free and fair, hence the perjury against him now…

More to come.
