Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, on Tuesday described President Muhammadu Buhari as “my grandfather, “saying it is improper for him to abuse the President as widely claimed.

But the governor maintained that “being his grandfather” does not mean he would not criticise him when going in the wrong direction.

Fayose, who was a Guest Speaker at the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) World Press Freedom Day lecture held on Tuesday in Ibadan, Oyo State, said he would rather die than concealing the truth.
Speaking on the topic “Journalism and Politics : Two Sides of A Coin,” the controversial governor said there were two things that people were afraid of, that is they were afraid to die and were also afraid to be locked away.

Fayose said his criticism of President Buhari is healthy for Nigeria and the people of the country to achieve economic and political development.
According to him, it would be absurd for all to watch and refused to talk even when the ship of the nation is drifting away dangerously to perdition.
Citing the illegal arrest and detention of some Nigerians by agents of the federal government without any evidence of criminal charges, he stated that it was against the rights of any citizen to be detained for several weeks without any proof.
While insisting that his unrelenting criticism of President Buhari was not due to bitterness or hatred, the guest speaker said “I don’t abuse Buhari because he is my grandfather. But we all must not sleep and face the same direction in this country. The people voted for him because they wanted change and I agreed with that because we really needed change.

They told Nigerians that when they get into power there will be no subsidy and there will be no queues again but today full subsidy and queues are here.

“In the last 12 months, Nigerians have never had it so bad. Most generators have been exhausted.”

Hell must cold for that to happen.

Who then should we believe? The former Fayose or this fayose?

WE ALL MUST NOT SLEEP AND FACE THE SAME DIRECTION IN THIS COUNTRY!!!


If you people really read the article, you'll agree with me that he's saying the truth.



Sometimes, criticisms are needed for leaders to lead aright.

If everyone is praising a leader and no one is criticising, then, something must be wrong, it's either the leader is too tough and all the followers are afraid or all the followers are first class mumus.

[size=14pt]Although I don't trust Nations newspaper I love Fayose with all my heart[/size]

Fayose always making sense....... #IstandWithFayose

Politicians are funny characters!

ehya... sowie I didn't know that Fayose is your daddy.

eranko. you better look for where they sell cow brain and sign up for a brain transplant ASAP before your life remain one bar.

I wonder how people like you found their way out of the birth canal anyway.

Has Fayose worked in a Powder factory before... is like dust of detergents is inside his mendular oblongata

Burger01:

Bro, it will do you like dizziness by the time it happens. There is no shame in Nija politics.

Fayose himself is not even young. He looks like a man in his 60s barely 10years younger than Buhari. Buhari is not even old enough to be his father not to talk of grandfather.

Man ke? Since when goat turn to man Abeggi

When wronged in a democratic environment like when your lawmaker was allegedly and wrongfully arrested, you go to the court of law to seek injunctions, redress and punitive damages, not shouting and attacking the President everyday like mad BINGO..

Every market clown shout democracy when it suits them, but they know nothing about democracy. They think democracy means the right to shout needlessly and attack people with zero rational ..

What a dunce...
