The Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has slammed former
president, Olusegun Obasanjo,calling him expired and irrelevant.Speaking
at a press conference , he said
“I was governor without a godfather. I was governor for three years but Obasanjo took me out. Obasanjo is now an expired man today and I am still more than relevant. He is expired. He goes to Aso Rock every week to go and beg.
“How many times did Buhari visit him (Obasanjo) when he was President? Buhari did not go to Aso Rock throughout. He didn’t even go for Council of State meetings. What is Obasanjo looking for in the Villa? A man of 80! What is he looking for?“He keeps writing to Presidents to nominate ministers for them. That was Goodluck Jonathan’s offence. Enough is enough.”“I am going places, I have history to make. I am going higher and higher. The very day Buhari’s administration faces me, his government will come down. I am a child of destiny,”
He also urged President
Muhammadu Buhari to make the war against corruption total by being bold
enough to probe the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo
and others about how they spent their security votes.
Accusing the president of being selective in the fight against
corruption, he said,
“I support the fight against corruption but it has to be total. Buhari must be bold enough to probe how ex-presidents Obasanjo, Babangida and others spent their security votes.“All the Presidents that had come in Nigeria spent their security votes in the same pattern. So, Buhari must open the book and come out with facts.”
