Fayose urges Buhari to resign for alleged incompetence
The Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has advised President Muhammadu Buhari to resign if he has no clue to solving the dwindling economic fortunes and the high level of poverty in the nation.
Fayose, who advised Buhari to also fulfill the three million jobs annually, he promised during the electioneering campaign, added that it would be unfair to this government to sack anybody under any guise or fail to resolve all issues affecting the populace, having promised that he has the magic wand to turn the country around.
The governor accused president Buhari of double standard for proposing to remove the subsidy and jack up the pump price to N97, saying, “this is not the change Nigerians voted for. President Buhari must fulfill all his electoral promises to the people. Enough of these flimsy excuses”, he said.
The governor spoke yesterday while signing into law, the sum of N67.04 billion 2016 Appropriation Bill he presented to the House last Tuesday, among other five bills that had been passed by the house.
Others bills assented to include: Ekiti State Regency Bill, Ekiti State 2015 Revised Appropriation Bill, Ekiti State College of Technical and Commercial Agriculture Repeal Bill, Ekiti State Office of the Defenders Bill and Kidnap and Terrorism Prohibition Bill 2016.
Fayose, who rapped Buhari for running what he described as “a rudderless government said: “What we have under change promised by APC is dwindling economy, low power generation, proposed subsidy removal, high level poverty and naira devaluation.
“What President Buhari promised us is change and he should resign if he has no clues to all these problems
“Even for the President to have said Nigerians should brace up for more hardship in 2016 is most callous of a man who promised Nigerians change.
“President Buhari must stop fighting from all fronts. This political vendetta will take him nowhere. If he thinks he can’t solve all these problems, he should handover to Vice President Yemi Osinbajo or whoever and bow out honourably”.
Fayose after assenting to the bills directed the Speaker of the Assembly, Hon Kola Oluwawole to send copies to the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and Independent Corrupt Practices and other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) for proper monitoring.
“The fact that the appropriation bill was signed into law after one week of its presentation goes to show the unity of purpose between my government and the House. We have unanimously said today that we are running the same government under my leadership and that we will keep.
The Speaker assured the governor that the House would continue to sustain the harmonious relationship between it and the executive arm.

Are you serious? You want ABRACADABRA in 6 months?
Abracadabra is magic and it normally happens in the twinkling of the eye. You see, to be Honest with you, when a candidate solicits votes, it is assumed that such a person already understands what he will be meeting if he gets into office. It amounts to insincerity for a political office holder who campaigned for votes to say he did not know the situation was that bad. It means that person simply wants to get into office at all cost without a road-map. It is unfair on the people.
Don’t mind this gang star & mischievous Fayose that calls himself governor instead of ”area boy” (agbero)
MONKEY. YOU AYE MAN SOON THEY WILL SHOOT YOU DEAD
Fayose, Ike Ekweremadu & Oliseh Metuh (PDP) are like a pot calling the kettle black
Will anyone believe this idiot so call governor was wearing a polo and short pant like a tout when signing bills presented to him while he is vomiting rubbish from his flirting mouth.
YOU ARE THE IDOT WHO COULD READ BETWEEN THE LIES THAT BUHARI HAS NO PLANS TO MOVE NIGERIA FORWARD AND ALL HIS CAMPAIGN PROMISES ARE LIES, YOU PIG
Have you eaten today?
YOUR MAMA TOTO
Not so fast, Governor. You all did not know the extent this Nation was pillaged since Independence. The healing is taking the stage. We must patiently wait for it to unfurl like flowers from a promising bud.
If it started since independence,then Buhari was part of it.Was he not in power 83/84.Did he not head the oil ministry during those days?Let the truth be told and the devil be put to shame.
We are all in the game ‘William Dennar’. I am not for or against neither politician for both are in the deeper fray than both of us for their having directed the National affairs those days of turmoil. What I am saying is we have endured patiently to date. Why get unnecessarily in a hurry as very prudent ground rules are being instituted? ‘Four years’ is a nearer cry from 50-something years of checkered Independence.
Fayose need to resign first. This is a governor who robbed Ekiti people of one billion naira through fraudlent poultry project.
GOAT BRING EVIDENCE, BEER PARLOR TALK
What this ape is purging out is no more politics. This is PERSONAL HATRED. If the court comes to the conclusion that the election he claimed to have won was rigged, then he can check out of the country. How can a state governor expect RESPECT from HIS folk, when he obviously never learnt to respect the elders and the OFFICE of the presidency. Our mindset is driving we Africans into darkness. This IMBECILE is a DISGRACE to OMO ODUDUWA.
It is instructive to point out sir that people who preach respect like you appear to be doing do not call other persons apes or imbeciles. what is good for the goose is equally good for the gander
PIG WHEN YOU ARE INSULTING JONATHAN DID ANY ONE BEHEAD YOU. MUMU
In about 14 days time we will be in 2016. Like 2015 that came and now is almost gone.2018 will soon come ffor real time politik. Then only can we re-appraise the APC and their campaign promises of 2015 and take a decision; whether or not to swim with their pattern of “change” into 2020
Why is this corrupt cheater still in office? Was he not caught pants down or red handed in Ekiti Gate? Fool!
GOAT WHO IS CORRUPT BUT A MAN WHO CANT PRESENT SIMPLE WASC CERTIFICATE, MUMU
We will review and take appropriate action.
