The Ekiti State Governor, Mr Kayode
Fayemi, in a broadcast to the people of the state,
has declared a 7pm to 7am curfew in the state after thugs on Friday took to the
streets burning houses and looting shops.
Friday’s violence followed the
killing of a former Ekiti State chairman of the National Union of Road
Transport Workers, Omolafe Aderiye,
who was killed in his office in Ijigbo area of the state capital, Ado-Ekiti.
Reports said Aderiye was shot at
close range in his office . He is reported to have died before
medical attention could get to him. The former NURTW chairman was
believed to be a staunch supporter of the governor-elect, Mr Ayo Fayose and
took active part in his campaign coordination.
More details later.
God help us in Nigeria
