Group Warned Gov Fayose by praise007: 3:49pm On Jan 19, 2016 |
The Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) has
warned Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose
against reckless statement capable of
undermining the nation’s democracy..
The group claimed that Fayose’s comment that
the ongoing investigation, ordered by President
Muhammadu Buhari, into the involvement of
immediate past military chiefs in scams in the
purchase of arms could motivate the military
toppling Buhari’s government, was least
expected of his office as a governor.
The group, in a statement signed by its Director,
Professor Ishaq Akintola described Fayose’s
comment as unnecessary warning, distasteful
and alarming.
“It is short in sincerity but long in hypocrisy. It
is also provocative. It falls within the rank of
hate speech and incitement,” MURIC noted.
According to the Rights body, “There is no
gainsaying the fact that there has been no love
lost between Governor Ayodele Fayose and
President Buhari. The governor has never been
known to wish the president well. Is this not
the same governor who placed a full-page
death-wish advertisement in the newspaper
before the presidential elections? This same
governor has become known for his blind and
unobjective criticism of Buhari’s policies since
the inception of this administration. So who is
he trying to scare?”
Continuing, it said, “Fayose’s opposition to the
current war against corruption should therefore
not surprise anyone. His allergy for probity and
accountability led him to insist that he would
not embrace the Treasury Single Account (TSA)
policy. We shall know them by their fruits. Just
yesterday, Sokoto State was able to discover
N1.5 billion excess through the TSA. This alone
proves that TSA is in our best interest. So who
is Fayose deceiving? What purpose does his
grandstanding serve?
“We remind the Nigerian Army that military rule
has become an anachronism. Any involvement
of the military in politics is a misadventure.
Nigerians have not only breathed the air of
democracy, they have tasted its delicious juice.
They have bitten, chewed and swallowed its
fulfilling morsels. There is no going back. Let no
frustrated politician deceive our soldiers.
Nigerians have long declared a caveat emptor:
military rule must not come back again.” |
