Ekiti State Governor-elect, Kayode Fayemi, has said that he will probe the administration of outgoing governor, Ayodele Fayose.

Mr. Fayemi said this on Thursday in an interview with State House correspondents after he met President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The former Minister of Mines and Steel Development stated that it was in the interest of good governance for him to investigate how much accrued to the state and why salaries were not paid.

He said, “l think we need to remove this election from personalities. This was an election that we fought on issues and it will be irresponsible on my part to come here and say that we will not examine what transpired in the last four years in the manner of government.

“What was received in Ekiti State and the expenditures in that period, why were we not able to pay salaries in the state? These issues should be examined in the interest of good governance.

“It is not about probing Fayose, probing Eleka etc. It is about not repeating the mistakes of the past and giving our people good government. So, we will also involve in looking at what transpired in the last four years.”
