EMBARRASSING THING EKITI STATE PDP TELLS PRESIDENT BUHARI – FULL DETAILS
POLITICS
– Latest
report as the campaign organization of the Ekiti State Deputy Governor and
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Prof Kolapo Olusola has
described President Buhari’s statement that the All Progressives Congress (APC)
must win the July 14 governorship election in Ekiti State as “wishful
thinking.”
The
party said, “Ekiti people will never allow their State to be added to the
comity of States already infected with the plague of mis-governance by the
President and his party.”
The PDP
candidate said it was appalling that a President, who should be apologizing to
Ekiti people and the entire Nigerians for plunging the country into economic
and security crises was the one talking about returning Ekiti into the fold of
progressive states.
In a
statement issued, on Thursday, KOCO Director of Media and Publicity, Lere
Olayinka said, “President Muhammadu Buhari should perish the thought of his
anointed candidate, Dr. Kayode Fayemi, winning the July 14 election and face
the reality of his failed Presidency with a view to making amends before he is
sent back to Daura next year.”
Olayinka
challenged President Buhari to tell Nigerians what he has done for the State in
the last three and half years, saying; “Even in Isan Ekiti, Fayemi’s hometown,
nothing has happened to the Clay Kaolin that is there in large quantity despite
that their son is in charge of solid minerals.
Funny
that the President said Ekiti must return to the fold of progressive states. Is
he talking about the same so-called progressives States that are sacking
workers in their thousands? Or the APC States where herdsmen are killing people
in a gruesome manner on daily basis is what he wants Ekiti State to join?
Truly,
Ekiti people are well known for their forthrightness, candor and integrity.
They will never subject themselves to the whim and caprices of a President who
looked the other way when thousands of people were being killed by herdsmen in
Benue, Taraba, Plateau and other states. Having returned to the number one
position in education, Ekiti will never go back to that era that it was in 34th
position.
Teachers
will never use their votes to return the State to that perilous time when their
jobs were constantly threatened with Competency Test and Principals demoted and
sent to classrooms as mere classroom teachers. Local Government workers in
Ekiti State will not allow a return of Fayemi’s ‘Boko Haram’ that made their
lives impossible for over three years.
Most
importantly, Ekiti will never return to that inglorious era of APC government
of Fayemi when over N500 million was used to plant flowers that have remained
invisible up till today and over N60 billion loan taken with nothing to show.
“Finally,
with Governor Ayodele Fayose and the PDP, it is evidently clear that Ekiti is
already moving steadily to its promised land, with unprecedented
infrastructural development and will never return to the land of despair,
bloodshed, hunger, and hopelessness that President Buhari and his APC
represent.
