Hahaha. I really feel sorry for your dumb ass. Buhari was never and will never be my president. Nothing concerns me if the whole of the north east and north west are wiped out by Boko Haram. It would even make life we easier for other Nigerians. As long as they are hausa / Fulanis I will be very happy if they're wiped out.

Fayose resounding victory is good for democracy. To every strong government in power there must be strong opposition to put unexpected behaviors in check. For good of Nigeria, defection of political prostitutes should be discouraged. Those who should have stayed where they are and shed light to darkest sides of policies of government in power would prefer to join the majority and cover evil. I salute Fayose's courage and pray he will take his State to greater heights.

It is you people outside Ekiti who choose to weep louder than the bereaved who see Fayoose as a Thug. To us in Ekiti, I mean those of us who live within the State of Ekiti, he is a hero, an achiever and a man of his words. In my community, Onala,Off Afao Raod, Ado Ekiti, Fayoose has just constructed a standard raod for us, a thing the former APC government did not deem fit to do. Fayoose promised to do this during his campaigns and as soon as he was sworn in, he fulfilled his promise. That is why Ekiti people are head over heels in love with him. Government is not only about finesse, it is about keeping to the terms of the social contract. WE EKITI PEOPLE LOVE FAYOOSE BECAUSE HE LOVES US. QED.

This is Victory for democracy and I congratulate the good people of Ekiti.

WHY AYO FAYOSE? some folks have been wondering and asking. I believe this little exposition will open your eyes beyond media propaganda of the media.

In 1999, Adeniyi Adebayo was the governor of EKITI STATE under ALLIANCE FOR DEMOCRACY (AD). Adebayo won election on a platter of gold not because he was popular but because of his father's recognition and AD reputation as AWOLOWO's party and no south west state would be in opposition to the party.

Adebayo's rule was characterised with gross failure, mismanagement of fund and 'paddy-paddy' government (despite the fact that PDP was not a humilating opposition). The elites, who now form E11, and some traditional rulers connived with Adebayo to loot the state dry! Civil servants were owed salaries in months, health services was luxury and potable water was beyond the reach of the common man!

During this time, a man came from the back of beyond and started erecting signpost everywhere in Ekiti State 'AYO FAYOSE FOR GOVERNOR' 'WHO IS AYO FAYOSE?'. That was 1999, 4 yrs to another election. He backed up his publicity with action by running free mobile health services and potable water for the peple of Ekiti. He saw the failure of Adebayo's government and capitalised on it. For four years, he used his own money to run parallel government for Ekiti people. Adebayo mistook him for jester because he beleived incumbent could never loose an election and no yoruba state will vote for PDP. I don't want to bore you with the politics of how he won the PDP primary against SK Babalola, a personal friend of Obj, but in the general election, he beat Adebayo hands-down in 2003! Of course, it is logical, you have a failed gocernment for 4 yrs and someone who is not in govt is solving your problems with his own money, will he not make sense to kukuma elect the person as your governor?

He took over in 2003 and the looters of Ekiti, the E11 and some traditional rulers who were siphoning Ekiti resources through Adebayo came to meet him thinking it was going to be business as usual, but to their disappointment, Fayose told them off, then the battle-line was drawn. They deployed ll resources to fight him and the more the fought him, the stronger he hit them back. They started with his HND certificate scandal which he overcame. They employed the media and he fought back. From his 1st day in office till when he left, it was from one battle to another. Despite that, he was developing the state. He started the dualization of Ado-Ekiti, paid all the debts of Adebayo, strenghtened the health sector, make unprecendeted improvement in education and agriculture with lots of road construction all through the state. Then, in every three months, Obj will have reason to come down to Ekiti to commission one project or the other. That was why he was christianed "the Architect of the modern Ekiti State' May I also state that latest, by 26th of the month, civil servants have received their salaries in full. allowances were paid promptly and condition of service improved.

He was in war with the elites and some kabiyesis who wished to continue to milk the state dry. In 2006, they succeeded in buying over the house of assembly and an impeachment notice was served on him after promising the speaker, Friday Aderemi that he would be the governor in his stead. The Chief judge constituted a panel of inquiry which discharged the governor of any wrong doing. Dissatisfied with the result of the panel, the HOA, unconstitutionaly removed the Chief judge that did their bid by constituting another panel which now indicted Fayose and pronounced him impeached.

Fayose insisted he was still the governor since the HOA has no power in law to remove and appoint judges, since he was then already out of favour with OBJ, he was stripped off his security details. He was now a governor in the government house without security. He received a call that some people were coming to assasinate him in the govt. house, he had to jump over fence and run to exile.

Immediately his whereabout was not known, the speaker (who is now late) declared himself the governor and the Deputy governor said she was the governor in the absence of the governor. This led to a declaration of State of emmergency in the state by Obasanjo, for which Olurin was made the administrator.

Segun Oni later became governor under PDP amidst the controversy of coming 3rd in the primary election of PDP. His victory at poll was challenged by Kayode Fayemi, his ACN main opponent, by this time Fayose, who has been declared wanted by EFCC for various allegations has come back in grand style to hand himself over to EFCC for interogation and he was released on bail. On arrival, he mantained that Oni had no right to govern Ekiti because he lost the primary election. He teamed up with Fayemi, campaigned and mobilised for him during the re-election that sent Oni parking.

Fayemi wanted him to stay in ACN, he declined that he cannot function in a party where there is no internal democracy and somebody in Lagos just determines the fate of others. He moved to Labour party with an intention to run for the senatorial election in Ekiti central. He had an agreement with Fayemi, that since he worked for him in the re-run election, ACN should not feed any candidate against him in the senatorial election, but rather work with him to defeat the PDP candidate. Fayemi agreed before the his election, but immediately he won, he broke the agreement. ACN now fielded Femi Ojudu against Fayose, rigged for him and Fayose lost the senatorial election. THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF THE SUICIDE MISSION OF ACN/APC IN EKITI STATE.

Fayemi had no humilating opposition throughout his reign, hence no excuse to fail, but he was just a visionless leader. Forget about the media hype. Fayemi remains the worst governor in the history of Ekiti State. His era was characterised with strong misplacement of priority, wasteful spending and lack of accountability. It was a period of tears and gnashing of teeth for the civil servants in Ekiti. Throughout his administration, nobody was paid gratuity in Ekiti State, civil servants were owed salary and he pulmeted the state into huge debts that will be paid by generation unborn in the state. Instead of borrowing money for income-generating and self-financing project, he borrowed over N3billion to build Government house (when nothing is wrong with the existing one) for a state that could not pay salary and gets just N2.5bill as allocation.

He was always at logger head with the civil servants. He threatened and blackmailed teachers into writing re-certification Exams which they blatantly refused. Civil servants were subjected to the activities of Attendants Officers who behave in a 'boko-haramic' manner by harrasing life out of even directors. If you are not available to mark attendance sheet by 7:30am, you are a gonner. You will see Directors jumping over fence to be able to meet attendants officers who are junior officers. To Kayode Fayemi, Ekiti people needed to be disciplined at all cost, even if they had to be handle like primary 3 children.

This was the time Fayose arrived the scene for re-election in 2014. Ekiti people who were already tired of Fayemi's missrule remember the good old days of Fayose. They see him as someone who fights their battle against the greedy rich who are out to milk Ekiti dry. They remembered he was always paying their salaries. They remembered He started dualization of Ado-Ekiti Road. They remember he bult schools. They remembered he constructed roads. Of course the remembered he insulted some Kings who wanted to use him to rape the state's treasury, but they beleive he did it for their sake. They saw him as the generalsimo of the Ekiti masses. During the election, he beat Fayemi hands down despite the propaganda of caling him thug, a fraudster and a muderer. Tht worked on the psych of non-ekiti indigenes, but Ekiti people knows the truth and unfortunately, it is the Ekiti people tht voted.

Before inauguration, the APC used every available strategies to scuttle his inaguration, including arm-twisting the judiciary, put Ekiti people resisted it. When they failed, they resorted to using the house to frustrate his government (even before inauguration, they had be boasting they will impeach him because they control majority in the house, even though six decamped on inauguration day)

Through the 7 members of the Assembly, a political strategy was used to frustrate the 19 who were APC members and bent on frustrting the government and instead of standing their grand, they quickly went to the court to challenge the suspension of their speaker. THIS ANOTHER GREAT UNDOING, BECAUSE UNTILL COURT PRONOUNCEMENT, HE REMAINED SUSPENDED.

They remained in Lagos and people of Ekiti formed an opinion that they are enemies of progress who only wish to distrupt the peace of the State for their selfish interest. The Kings of their towns had to place curses on some of them. As I write, they cannot walk freely in Ekiti. Some cannot even visit their home towns for the fear of been lynched.

Immediately, they had Buhari won election, they mobilized down to the state, fully armed with a view to commence impeachment and they were prevented. They had a kangaroo sitting somewhere and they circulated impeachment notice online. It was not recognized by the governor, neither by the judge because there is a procedural error, moreso that they have taken their case to court, the speaker had no power to do anything untill the court says his suspension was wrong. The major objective of their activities was to create an atmosphere of chaos in Ekiti-State as to prevent the conduct of the last saturday HOA election, but the good people of Ekiti resisted them.

The election was conducted and PDP won all the 26 HOA election. That is the end of discussion and brings silences the kangaroo inpeachment plot.

CAN FAYOSE BE IMPEACHED BY THE INCOMING HOA BY BETRAYING HIM?

The possibility is less than 1%
(1) Fayose specifically selected all those who contested under PDP and they are his core loyalist

(2) He ensured most of them are not people of very sound ideology and intellect. We have highlife musicians, cultura dancer, photographers among them, though there are medical doctors too. but more of people with low exposure

(3) He used his personal money to buy nomination forms and run campaign for them.

(4) They are made to sign undated resignation letter submitted to him before the election

(5) Immediately they won the election, they all took an oath with 'omi-ibon' invoking the spirit of 'ogun' the god of iron and 'sango' the god of thunder anyday they just consider plotting against the governor, then the gods should visit them amd their families with shameful death. (The same thing Fayemi did when he was elected governor)

So how do they want to be bought over? Fayose knows his onions and people who are saying he will be impeached. Sit down dia and be dreaming. When he said you will need to impeach God and Ekiti people before you can impeach him, you think he did not know what he was saying? Ekiti people are tired of APC. They have discovered that their stock-in-trade are lies, deceit and propaganda. Ekiti-State is like a damsel that has been opportuned to stay with two different husbands at different time and she no knows who really have her interest at heart. Ekiti people have been opportuned to carry water and compared with the weight of oil, they now know which one is heavier. I only hope APC will not apply Fayemi's template in the running of the affairs of Nigeria and other states they will govern, because if they do, it will be a case of changing from frying pan to fire.

Once again, I congratulate Gov. Ayodele Fayose, the good people of Ekiti State and the entire Nigeria. This is democracy at work.

Fayemi agreed before the his election, but immediately he won, he broke the agreement. ACN now fielded Femi Ojudu against Fayose, rigged for him and Fayose lost the senatorial election. THIS IS THE BEGINNING OF THE SUICIDE MISSION OF ACN/APC IN EKITI STATE.

Fayemi had no humilating opposition throughout his reign, hence no excuse to fail, but he was just a visionless leader. Forget about the media hype. Fayemi remains the worst governor in the history of Ekiti State. His era was characterised with strong misplacement of priority, wasteful spending and lack of accountability. It was a period of tears and gnashing of teeth for the civil servants in Ekiti. Throughout his administration, nobody was paid gratuity in Ekiti State, civil servants were owed salary and he pulmeted the state into huge debts that will be paid by generation unborn in the state. Instead of borrowing money for income-generating and self-financing project, he borrowed over N3billion to build Government house (when nothing is wrong with the existing one) for a state that could not pay salary and gets just N2.5bill as allocation.

He was always at logger head with the civil servants. He threatened and blackmailed teachers into writing re-certification Exams which they blatantly refused. Civil servants were subjected to the activities of Attendants Officers who behave in a 'boko-haramic' manner by harrasing life out of even directors. If you are not available to mark attendance sheet by 7:30am, you are a gonner. You will see Directors jumping over fence to be able to meet attendants officers who are junior officers. To Kayode Fayemi, Ekiti people needed to be disciplined at all cost, even if they had to be handle like primary 3 children.

This was the time Fayose arrived the scene for re-election in 2014. Ekiti people who were already tired of Fayemi's missrule remember the good old days of Fayose. They see him as someone who fights their battle against the greedy rich who are out to milk Ekiti dry. They remembered he was always paying their salaries. They remembered He started dualization of Ado-Ekiti Road. They remember he bult schools. They remembered he constructed roads. Of course the remembered he insulted some Kings who wanted to use him To Molest the state's treasury, but they beleive he did it for their sake. They saw him as the generalsimo of the Ekiti masses. During the election, he beat Fayemi hands down despite the propaganda of caling him thug, a fraudster and a muderer. Tht worked on the psych of non-ekiti indigenes, but Ekiti people knows the truth and unfortunately, it is the Ekiti people tht voted.

Before inauguration, the APC used every available strategies to scuttle his inaguration, including arm-twisting the judiciary, put Ekiti people resisted it. When they failed, they resorted to using the house to frustrate his government (even before inauguration, they had be boasting they will impeach him because they control majority in the house, even though six decamped on inauguration day)

Through the 7 members of the Assembly, a political strategy was used to frustrate the 19 who were APC members and bent on frustrting the government and instead of standing their grand, they quickly went to the court to challenge the suspension of their speaker. THIS ANOTHER GREAT UNDOING, BECAUSE UNTILL COURT PRONOUNCEMENT, HE REMAINED SUSPENDED.

They remained in Lagos and people of Ekiti formed an opinion that they are enemies of progress who only wish to distrupt the peace of the State for their selfish interest. The Kings of their towns had to place curses on some of them. As I write, they cannot walk freely in Ekiti. Some cannot even visit their home towns for the fear of been lynched.

Immediately, they had Buhari won election, they mobilized down to the state, fully armed with a view to commence impeachment and they were prevented. They had a kangaroo sitting somewhere and they circulated impeachment notice online. It was not recognized by the governor, neither by the judge because there is a procedural error, moreso that they have taken their case to court, the speaker had no power to do anything untill the court says his suspension was wrong. The major objective of their activities was to create an atmosphere of chaos in Ekiti-State as to prevent the conduct of the last saturday HOA election, but the good people of Ekiti resisted them.

The election was conducted and PDP won all the 26 HOA election. That is the end of discussion and brings silences the kangaroo inpeachment plot.

CAN FAYOSE BE IMPEACHED BY THE INCOMING HOA BY BETRAYING HIM?

The possibility is less than 1%
(1) Fayose specifically selected all those who contested under PDP and they are his core loyalist

(2) He ensured most of them are not people of very sound ideology and intellect. We have highlife musicians, cultura dancer, photographers among them, though there are medical doctors too. but more of people with low exposure

(3) He used his personal money to buy nomination forms and run campaign for them.

(4) They are made to sign undated resignation letter submitted to him before the election

(5) Immediately they won the election, they all took an oath with 'omi-ibon' invoking the spirit of 'ogun' the god of iron and 'sango' the god of thunder anyday they just consider plotting against the governor, then the gods should visit them amd their families with shameful death. (The same thing Fayemi did when he was elected governor)

So how do they want to be bought over? Fayose knows his onions and people who are saying he will be impeached. Sit down dia and be dreaming. When he said you will need to impeach God and Ekiti people before you can impeach him, you think he did not know what he was saying? Ekiti people are tired of APC. They have discovered that their stock-in-trade are lies, deceit and propaganda. Ekiti-State is like a damsel that has been opportuned to stay with two different husbands at different time and she no knows who really have her interest at heart. Ekiti people have been opportuned to carry water and compared with the weight of oil, they now know which one is heavier. I only hope APC will not apply Fayemi's template in the running of the affairs of Nigeria and other states they will govern, because if they do, it will be a case of changing from frying pan to fire.

Once again, I congratulate Gov. Ayodele Fayose, the good people of Ekiti State and the entire Nigeria. This is democracy at work.

Hahaha. I really feel sorry for your dumb ass. Buhari was never and will never be my president. Nothing concerns me if the whole of the north east and north west are wiped out by Boko Haram. It would even make life we easier for other Nigerians. As long as they are hausa / Fulanis I will be very happy if they're wiped out.
Remember that the same GOD that created you and put you in wherever you location or region is, is the same GOD that created those in the North. The northerners didn't chose to be in the north GOD did. Show a little compassion for those kids and their families, is't too much to ask?
