“Fayose flared up when I refused to prostrate and beg him and vowed that he would not allow me to return to the House.
“For somebody to say he would not allow an elected representative of the people to go back to the Assembly shows the type of character Fayose is. He got 14,000 votes from my constituency and he has done nothing for the people.

“I have petitioned the Inspector General of Police and all of us will go there and explain ourselves. On June 8 when I went to resume, I had an information that they will storm the House with thugs but I went there to see whether they would kill me.
“If they want to shoot me dead, I am ready. I am not an appointee of Fayose, I was elected the same way he was elected. I apologize to all Ekiti people for joining hands to bring him back to power and that is why he is misbehaving now.

“The Inspector General of Police had given an order that nothing should happen to me; the House of Assembly belongs to Ekiti people and not to Ayo Fayose. Fayose has brought odium and shame to Ekiti State.
“He is owing the Assembly six months salaries, Ekiti lawmakers are crying underneath because many of them are heavily indebted. Fayose threatened that he would recall me, let him go ahead but I will never prostrate for Fayose,” the suspended lawmaker added.
