One man that
is known for his bluntness and controversies ahead of the 2015 Elections has to
be Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti state.
The PDP governor who ceaselessly tongue-lashed
the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, General Muhammadu
Buhari in recent times, has continued to gather the attention of the public
with his ever indifferent act.
He yet again opined his views why the PDP
candidate, President Goodluck Jonathan is a better man for Nigeria than a man
who he finally acknowledge is old enough to be his father (Gen. Buhari).
Speaking at the PDP Governors’ forum held on
Tuesday, March 10, in Lagos, Fayose had a lot of unflattering things to say
about the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Muhammadu
Buhari.
Below are excerpts from Fayose’s speech at the
forum:
1. “If General
Buhari isn’t bold enough to come out and debate or speak in public, that means
he will end up as a shield for some people to corner the Nigeria economy”.
2. “I am not
after General Buhari, he is my father. Anybody who is the age of your mother is
your father”.
3. “A lot of
people over 70 are now wearing pampers, Nigerians should not be deceived they
must vote for people that have the capacity and mental ability to do this job”.
4. “Nigerians I’m
saying to you, General Buhari is too old. If APC had picked Kwankwaso (our
brother) , then we know they picked someone that has life, you cannot see a
president in General Buhari because he will be over stressed except that person
is taking something to boost himself, like the President of Zimbabwe”.
5. “Last week, I
saw Lagosians running or jogging all to proof a point to cover certain tracks
and with our own Jonathan jogging too, you can see a man who wants to be
president and you can see the life in him. But let them bring our father
(Buhari) to do that and see if this mission is not to corner Nigeria’s wealth
and tax them to bleeding”.
6. “I was driving
through Lagos and I saw pictures of General Buhari, that isn’t General Buhari
because you can’t tell me that those pictures reflect the present man we see.
Those pictures reflect Buhari 20 years ago, that’s deception, photoshopping and
clean-up like when the ladies apply foundation on their faces”.
7. “General
Buhari is not a replacement for President Goodluck Jonathan”.
8. “Jonathan has
spent four years, concluding his remaining four years will do no harm to that
expressway of 8 years rotational presidency”.
9. “Most of our
brothers in the media are politicians, the titles are owned by politicians
& they don’t protect interest of public”
10. “I enjoy when
the press write about me because it makes me very popular and prepares me for
God’s blessings that is going to come my way”.
