Fayose
The All Progressives Congress, APC, in Ekiti State has slammed Governor Ayodele Fayose for labeling its Presidential candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), a liar.
APC was reacting to a recent statement attributed to Mr. Fayose, who insisted that Buhari is not eligible to contest the March 28 presidential election.
The State Publicity Secretary of the party, Taiwo Olatubosun, said Fayose’s action gave him away as an “unconscionable character who ought to hide his head in shame over his sundry activities that marked him out as a tragedy on the question of integrity”.
Olatubosun said the governor lacked the moral right to question any Nigerian on issues relating to integrity.
“Buhari told Nigerians about his educational qualification and reasons for visiting London. Except Fayose who said he saw Buhari in a London hospital, other people saw him at a private home and Chatham House where he delivered a public lecture.
“Lying is a question of integrity. A liar does not have integrity. Lying leads to deceit, stealing, conspiracy, murder and other vices. While Buhari has never and would never be associated with any of these vices in both private and public life, same cannot be said of Fayose who goes about with chains of alleged criminalities tied around his neck.
“It is amusing that a man once convicted of lying at the Ekiti State High Court would be the one accusing the innocent of lying.
“The latest in his lies is the denial of his involvement in the criminal conspiracy with his ilks in the Ekiti poll fraud as his voice was heard on how he collected INEC soft copies he printed to fraudulently win June 21, 2014 governorship election”.
