Ado Ekiti, the Ekiti State capital, is locked down by an anti-graft mass protest.

The protesters are chanting anti- Governor Ayodele Fayose songs as they march round the city.

According to Gboyega Adeoye, an Ekiti indigene, “I saw all these coming long ago. There is a limit to grandstanding, particularly when one is with little or no reputation. It is a case of over stretched luck. And it is sad that one can have two undue chances and squandered them.”
