Following the violence that marred the last Saturday’s Rivers rerun
election, the Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose has taken a swipe at
President Muhammadu Buhari saying he lacks the technical competence to
solve the problems of the country.
Speaking with newsmen
yesterday in Abuja, Fayose who recounted the list of elections held so
far under the Buhari’s administration which have been marred with
violence, warned that power should not be abused by anybody irrespective
of how highly placed.
Fayose said, “I am telling you the truth. Power doesn’t come from anywhere. God rules in the affairs of men.
“Oppressing,
bringing and cutting people down, taking their blood, God is angry. The
way this government is taking people down, God is angry. God isn’t
happy. Go to Rivers, they kill people.
“Go to Akwa Ibom, they kill
people. Go to Bayelsa, they kill people, incarcerate innocent people.
God is angry with Buhari. You can’t continue to take the blood of the
innocent.
“Look at my predictions for the year 2016 for Nigeria,
everything has come to pass. This is a different ball game. He that will
take me, he that will go against me must first of all defeat God. If
these were the kind of violence that greeted Buhari’s election would he
ever be president.”
Reacting to the just concluded expanded
retreat of the National Economic Council, NEC in Abuja, Fayose wondered
if the resolutions made will not be swept under the carpet as it is the
usual norm.
