Fayose more guilty of lopsided appointments – APC
The Ekiti State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has
tackled Governor Ayo Fayose on his criticisms of President
Muhammadu Buhari’s appointments which he described as
lopsided and promoting Northern agenda.
The party said Fayose is more guilty of carrying out lopsided
appointments since his return to the Government House,
maintaining that he lacks the moral authority to attack the
President over the appointments of close aides.
In a statement issued on Thursday by its Publicity Secretary in
the state, Taiwo Olatunbosun, the party wondered why Fayose
failed to remove the speck in his eyes before removing the log in
the eyes of somebody else saying, “the governor is guilty of worse
insensitivity to his fellow Ekiti people in the state appointments
made so far.
The APC accused Fayose of religious bias while he has favoured
appointees from his hometown, local government area and
members of his former political parties in the appointments made
so far.
The opposition party alleged that treatment of Muslims in terms
of appointment in the state is the worst since the state was
created, saying “Muslims were not given up to one percent of the
appointments made by Fayose’s administration.”
Olatunbosun said: “While Buhari’s appointments of his personal
aides were based mainly on merit and conviction that they would
deliver good services to lift Nigeria out of the woods, Fayose’s
consideration for appointments was based on narrow selfish
motives for self-preservation.
“While Buhari considered competence, merit and track records of
sound morality in public conduct in the appointments of his
personal aides, self-preservation is the major criterion for
appointments in Fayose’s government.
“This self-preservation is anchored on prospects of the
vulnerability of the appointees to manipulation and family affinity
which Fayose believes he can exploit to enable him have a firm
grip on the state and do whatever he wants with the fortunes of
Ekiti people without restraints.”
Olatunbosun said while Buhari saw hard-working and honest
Nigerians as having equal rights to political appointments to
render their services to the nation, Fayose’s choice of appointees
was based on loyalty of such appointees to serve his personal
interests.
Listing instances where Fayose chose personal interest above
state’s interest in appointments, Olatunbosun said: “In the twilight
of President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration, Governor
Fayose chose a 73-year-old Ambassador Toye Olofintuyi from his
(Fayose) Irepodun/Ifelodun local government as Ekiti State
representative at the Federal Civil Service Commission against the
wishes of party leaders.
“Fayose’s Chief of Staff is from the governor’s ward. His Personal
Assistant, Secretary of the Local Government Education Authority
and the chairman of Ekiti State Traffic Management Agency
(EKSTMA) are all from Afao-Ekiti, the governor’s home town.

APC always using fayose as a comparison btw d whole of their party..nawa oo..they have to take it easy and work..they were voted to work and if buhari is not been right in his appionments,they should have d guts to ask him why,not use other issues to hide their faults..

It is really sad to see the way Nigeria is falling into a cauldron of religious and ethnic discrimination. It pains me to say this but you are behaving the way Kanu described you:.... A zoo!!!

Why can't APC just face governance and stop playing opposition
Must they reply attention-seekers like Fayose?

Anything not from official PDP mouthpiece shouldn't taken seriously.

Fayose giving APC headache since 1900
