Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has continued to berate the Muhammadu Buhari administration and the All Progressives Congress (APC).
He faulted the President for going after People's Democratic Party Governors in the name of corruption, questioning that are APC leaders not corrupt?
Fayose stated this while speaking to journalists at the Ekiti state House of Assembly on Friday, November 13. He said he is not expected to be celebrating the Buhari government as a member of the opposition party, noting that criticizing the present administration will help check dictatorship and oppression.
He said, ”I will tell them the truth. Opposition helps government of the day, helps Nigerians, to keep them on track. Opposition helps to check dictatorship, opposition helps to check oppression. My being here as governor, my voice today will remain by the grace of God.
“I’m not like somebody going underground for reasons of harassment; it is only shameful that the government of the day is after shadows. You want to be in power, you are in power; you have charged virtually all PDP governors to court, are we saying no APC governor is corrupt in this country? But for me, I’m not going into that; I’m not going to descend into that arena.”
”For everything I say, I say it in good conscience. When I was criticising the President before he became President of Nigeria, they thought I will be quiet after. Tomorrow, if I find him wanting, I will tell him. The President is not God, he’s only leader of our country for a period of time.”
