Expecting that the Ekiti State senator, Ayodele Fayose, could escape the nation to escape arraignment, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Nigeria Customs Service have set the active representative on its watch list and is prepared to capture him on the off chance that he attempts to leave the nation.

This became known after a letter composed by the EFCC to the Nigeria Customs Service requesting that Fayose be watch-recorded for affirmed offenses verging on manhandle of office, tax evasion, burglary et cetera.

The letter, dated September 12, 2018 and marked by the acting EFCC director, Ibrahim Magu, was gotten on September 13 and followed up on September 14.

Some portion of the letter routed to the controller general of traditions noticed that "there is a sensible doubt recommending that he (Fayose) may probably leave the nation either through the land outskirts, air terminals or seaports with a specific end goal to dodge examination. Thus, you are compassionately asked for to watch-show him and capture him."

While following up on the letter, the traditions supervisor taught every zonal organizer, zone administrators and representatives to screen Governor Fayose.

Some portion of the letter composed by the Customs to its directions peruses, "… thusly, you are asked for to screen the subject and answer to Economic and Financial Crimes Commission through the gave contact points of interest if located."

Fayose, whose residency will end on October 16, is being examined by the EFCC for charged manhandle of office and illegal tax avoidance, among others.

However, Fayose answered that the counter join office does not have to screen him, as he was eager to surrender himself.

In an announcement yesterday, the Ekiti representative disclosed to EFCC that "when a lady is being conveyed to you as a spouse, you don't need to peep through the window to see her".

He included: "As I said in my letter, Insha Allah, I will be in your office on October 16, multi day after the lapse of my residency. EFCC putting my name on watch list after warning of my coming isn't just political however trivial. I'm not among the individuals who are reluctant to confront tomorrow. No one is God.

"They ought to expect me on October 16, 2018. I will stay in PDP not disapproving of their terrorizing".
