Ayo Fayose, a former Governor of Ekiti State has accused the former Nigerian Vice President and the 2023 presidential candidate of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Atiku Abubakar, the erstwhile governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal and the former national chairman of the PDP of destroying the party.
Fayose while appearing on Channels Television’s Politics Today stated that “Atiku destroyed the PDP, Tambuwal destroyed the PDP, and Ayu destroyed it. Politics is not fair; life itself is not balanced.”
Speaking on the rift between the Governor of Rivers State and Minister of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT), Nyesom Wike, Fayose said he never envisioned the situation between the duo.
“Let me quickly say this. I never knew this thing would ever happen between Rivers State Governor, Siminalayi Fubara, and the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike.
“I was sitting on the high table the day Governor Fubara was sworn in, and we were on the high table in Rivers. And I told Wike that I want to say one or two things to Fubara not to betray you,” he added.
The former governor also stated that despite his loyalty to the PDP, he was honest about his decision to support Bola Tinubu for president in 2023.
”Everybody stands where they will be able to say the truth to Nigerians. I am not contesting elections, and I have not asked anybody for favours.
“Openly, I supported Asiwaju Tinubu in 2023, and I didn’t hide it. Till now, I am still there. I didn’t jump. I have said it to you, I am not a member of the APC, and I will never be,” Fayose said.
