The acting chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Ibrahim Magu, has reacted to a video showing former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, dancing on a cruise ship with a white lady.

Magu through his spokesperson, Tony Amokeodo, stated that all they are concerned about is the resumption of the case they have against the former governor in court.

"We are not going to react to that video (on) the grounds that the EFCC is prosecuting him, not persecuting him.

”Besides, the court granted him permission to travel abroad for medical attention.

"We are of the opinion that the former governor would have to be in court and that his trial is on course. And we will definitely meet him on the next adjourned date," he said.

The video showing the former governor dancing had drawn heavy criticism from pro-Buhari supporters. According to their reactions on Twitter, the Fayose didn't really travel abroad for medical purpose but for relaxation.

In response, Fayose stated that his medical trip abroad isn't for admission but for check up.

He tweeted: "These "hailers",when I was on their case,they were crying. Now I'm on my own lane enjoying my life, they are still crying & sucking.Expect more so you can cry more. I'm on medical check up not admission. Celebrating New Year is my right, haters can hug transformer".
