NAIJ.com gathered that he said that it was
important for one to do the “things others
don’t do to get the attention others don’t
get”.
Fayose while urging Nigerians not to
undermine his presidential ambition, said:
“I am the man to watch in this generation.
So, I am controversial because I am doing
things other men like me cannot do. They
are scared. They are afraid; they don’t have
courage."
“What I am saying to you is that
controversy is necessary for democracy. We
must have our voice. I am not an APC
member and I will never be. But remember
the fact that our leader, Asiwaju Bola
Ahmed Tinubu, a courageous man in his
own right, our leader in Yoruba land, forget
about politics; if they give Asiwaju
appointment, he will give a Yoruba man.
Whether he is in the APC does not matter.
“And I came out strongly; I defended him. I
am not defending politics. I am defending
the truth. Our politics must have where we
would stop it and say the truth as may be
necessary,” he added.Fayose said he has intelligence report that
he is to be implicated in a treasonable
offence which would lead to his arrest as
well as those of some of his appointees. https://www.naij.com/1113892-im-controversial-i-courageous-fayose.html

a fool with a loose mouth could always appear controversial and courageous. we do not need courageous leaders who can play politics, we need innovative leaders who can deliver the dividends of democracy to the common man. you have failed sir in that regard

Fayose is a very courageous man...

...reason why i strongly doubt if he really is an afonja...

Salute your courage.
