The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has released the Ekiti State Finance Commissioner, Toyin Ojo, and the Accountant-General, Yemisi Owolabi.

This was confirmed in a statement by Lere Olayinka, the media aide to Governor Ayodele Fayose.

The officials were arrested by operatives of the anti-graft agency in Ado Ekiti, the state capital, on September 28.

The statement read, “Today, God gave Ekiti State and its people another victory over the EFCC and its APC collaborators as the State Commissioner for Finance, Chief Toyin Ojo and Accountant General, Mrs Yemisi Owolabi were released after spending 14 days in EFCC detention for doing nothing.

“Consequently, Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has directed that public servants in Ekiti State should work for half day tomorrow so as to enable them to join the governor to give heroic welcome to the Commissioner for Finance and Accountant General.

“Governor Fayose will be at Fajuyi, Ado Ekiti at 10am. All lovers of justice should join the governor to welcome our commissioner for Finance and Accountant General back to the State.”
