APC Wants To Take Ekiti Govt By Force, It Is Coup Against The People — Fayose by Onyi42(m): 1:38pm On Apr 20, 2015 |
The governor of Ekiti state, Ayodele Fayose, has maintained that he is ready for genuine reconciliation with the members of the opposition party, All Progressives Congress, APC but argued that the leadership of the APC want to takeover Ekiti state government by force. He said he took the step to seek a genuine reconciliation in the interest of the state with the APC, whose 19 lawmakers in the state House of Assembly were plotting his impeachment. The governor spoke on Sunday at the thanksgiving service organised for him at the Cathedral Church of Emmanuel, Anglican Communion, Ado Ekiti, to celebrate his electoral victory at the Supreme Court. Fayose said, “I asked for forgiveness for reconciliation and to pursue genuine peace. Waiving the olive branch does not mean cowardice, it is for peace. “Conspiracy is against God’s will. What better way could one seek peace other than asking for forgiveness.” “When I contested for Senate they said I lost and I did not fight anyone. I did not go to the tribunal and I was saying good things about the government then. The opposition should be courageous enough to accept defeat. I follow Jonathan in and out of office. Jonathan gave up for survival of Nigeria. Jonathan prevented the prophecy that Nigeria would break up in 2015. “I’m enjoying the mandate of God through his people and that cannot be controverted. My sin is because I allowed the common man to breathe the air of hope. “The people have spoken (governorship election), they said it was military intervention. They spoke the second term (presidential election), is that one photochromic? And they spoke again the third time (House of Assembly election). “If God that gave me victory cannot defend me, I better go home. If the people cannot defend the mandate they gave to me, I better go home. Power doesn’t come from man. Power belongs to God. Anyone against the voice of God is following Satan’s way. “In a democracy, you need a simple majority to win elections, but I enjoy total majority. They want to take government by force, firing shots at people; that is coup against the people. They said they are coming again tomorrow, we are waiting for them.” http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/04/apc-want-to-take-ekiti-govt-by-force-it-is-coup-against-the-people-fayose/ |

These set of desperados (Omirin and other fools being used) to truncate the peace of the state should allow the rule of the law and respect the wish of the people of Ekiti state. They perfectly use propaganda to get the attention of the masses as if they are saint. God has put Fayose there and he will not be impeached. |

You started this war and you must finish it. Was it not stupid and illegal that you used seven lawmakers to impeach the speaker and sack 19 just because you could order the police as you wished? It's payback time mister. And how will your impeachment translate to APC taking over Ekiti? Is it not your deputy that will move in as governor? 1 Like |
