Despite the invasion of the State House of Assembly and intimidation of state officials by men alleged to be officials of DSS, the Ekiti state Governor, Ayodele Fayose, says he won’t stop criticising President Muhammadu Buhari over his bad policies.
This was contained in a statement signed by Gov. Fayose’s Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi.
Fayose said he would remain steadfast in his determination to protect the interest of Nigerians and Nigeria’s democracy.
“The Bible says people with God are in majority. This is not the first time people will harass me. It is a conspiracy and it will collapse like other attempts before it. I will remain critical of the activities of the Federal Government, especially when they do things that are inimical to the welfare of Nigerians.”
“Imagine the questions they asked my Commissioner for Finance. They asked him if the Federal Government has reimbursed the state government on works done on federal roads. But the records are with them in Abuja, can’t they check? We have nothing to hide and they are only chasing shadows and are time wasters.”
“Telling the Federal Government that the economy is in trouble and that the President should stay at home to face governance is not a crime and is part of my rights as a citizen of this country. I am like a tree planted by the bank of a river that brings forth its fruits in due season.”
On the accusation that state lawmakers were offered $1 million to impeach him, Fayose stated that: “I am just coming from Abuja and I know that our lawmakers are solid guys and their future and mine are tied together.”
“When the APC was at its peak in the state and they wanted to use 19 lawmakers to impeach me, they failed woefully and they will still fail again. This is a storm in a tea cup. They are not just starting I defeated them in all courts in the land. I won’t deter from saying the truth about the federal government.”
“We are in the morning we have not seen what the night is going to be. If it is me that brought myself here they will succeed, but if it is God, they will have to first overcome God before overcoming me.”
