Fayose to Obasanjo: Stop Attacking Jonathan
Governor Ayodele Fayose
Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has advised former President
Olusegun Obasanjo to stop the consistent vitriolic attacks being
launched against the immediate past President, Goodluck Jonathan.
Fayose said: “Dr Goodluck Jonathan is no longer the president of
Nigeria; he should be allowed to live a private life devoid of
mudslinging from elder statesmen like Chief Obasanjo.”
The governor expressed resentment at how Obasanjo had chosen the 11th
Convocation Lecture of Benson Idahosa University (BIU) Benin, Edo State,
where he was quoted to have said: “The performance of Jonathan while in
office will hunt the people of the South-South region for a long time
to come.”
Venting his anger at the comment in a statement issued in Ado-Ekiti on
Monday by his Special Assistant on Public Communications, Lere Olayinka,
the governor said the people of the South-South had already
demonstrated their approval of Jonathan’s performance while in office by
voting overwhelmingly for him on March 28 despite the gang-up
orchestrated by Chief Obasanjo and his allies.
