Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State has responded to a statement credited to Zenith Bank debunking claims that it sponsored the governors election.
Fayose faulted the statement credited to the bank, stating that the letter allegedly issued by the bank was a fraud.
A statement made by his Special Adviser on Public Communications & New Media, Lere Olayinka, cited alleged flaws in the authenticity of the letter.
The statement read:
Note that PARAGRAPH 4 and 5 are the same. Can a corporate organisation of Zenith Bank standing make this kind of mistake in its Press Statement?
Note too that the signature there is none of Victor Adoji (Head, Corporate Communications)
The signature was SCANNED.
The LOGO too was SCANNED and imposed.
Zenith Bank PLC doesn’t have (Head of Corporate Communucation).
And which branch of the Zenith Bank released this statement? Zenith Bank, Abuja Branch, APC branch, Aso Villa branch, Bourdillon branch or the one operating inside Ojudu, Falana or EFCC office?
Ayodele Fayose had previously claimed that the bank sponsored his election.
The financial instutionon noted that its policy was against political donations and as such did not make an exception for the Ekiti state Governor, Ayodele Fayose.
