A former Head of State, General Muhamadu
Buhari, is set to mark the independence day in
Ekiti State, it was learnt on Tuesday.
He is to inaugurate a 12,000 Seater Ekiti Parapo
Square as part of activities marking the fourth
anniversary of the administration of Governor
Kayode Fayemi, which coincides with the
celebration.
The square is one of the legacy projects of the
Fayemi administration.
According to a statement by his Chief Press
Secretary, Olayinka Oyebode, the 2014 edition of
the State Merit Award would hold at the arena
shortly after.
Among those shortlisted for the award is Mr.
Moses Owolabi, a physically challenged
newspaper vendor in Ekiti State.
Meanwhile, the Governor-elect, Mr. Ayodele
Fayose, has urged Nigerians not to lose faith in
the country by continually seeking God’s
intervention in the nation’s affairs.
In a message in Ado-Ekiti on Tuesday on the
54th independence anniversary of the country,
made available to journalists through his Chief
Press Secretary, Mr. Idowu Adelusi, Fayose
prayed God to shame those fomenting trouble
and planning evil for the nation.
While felicitating with the people of Ekiti State
and Nigeria as a whole on the remarkable
occasion, he said despite all odds, Nigerians
could still count their blessings and thank God.
He said, “Nigerians should not lose hope or give
up on the country because of the challenges we
are facing, especially, in the area of security. We
should be appreciative that steps taken by the
Federal Government and the Armed Forces in
recent times are yielding good results.
“We must continue to support President
Goodluck Jonathan and pray for the success of
the administration as we are all stakeholders in
the enterprise called Nigeria. Just as the
President said some days ago, if we work as a
team like we did in tackling the Ebola Virus
Disease issue, insecurity and other vices in the
nation would be a thing of the past,”he said.
Fayose promised to provide quality leadership
that will better the lives of the people.
He, however, appealed to those yet to get over
their loss in the June 21 governorship poll to
note that it is God who install people in
positions, urging them to remember the saying
that, ‘The voice of the people is the voice of
God’.

Fayose, you will not be sworn on October 16.
The speaker will take over pending when
another election will be held with an eligible
candidate from PDP participating. You were
not eligible to contest in the first place.
Constitutionally, an impeached public office
holder can not seek reelection into that office
from which he was removed. Do you want to
go back there and perpetrate another poultry
fraud? No, Ekiti people will not allow that.
Ayo Fayose, you have completely lost out. I
rest my case for now.

Agree! Fayose is just ranting nonsense and GEJ is just looking.. smh

Buhari will also use that opportunity to move some thugs into the state in order to counter the threats posed by the elected thug and his cohorts!
