Following the violence that marred the last Saturday’s Rivers rerun election, the Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose has taken a swipe at President Muhammadu Buhari saying he lacks the technical competence to solve the problems of the country.
Speaking with newsmen yesterday in Abuja, Fayose who recounted the list of elections held so far under the Buhari’s administration which have been marred with violence, warned that power should not be abused by anybody irrespective of how highly placed.
Fayose said, “I am telling you the truth. Power doesn’t come from anywhere. God rules in the affairs of men.
“Oppressing, bringing and cutting people down, taking their blood, God is angry. The way this government is taking people down, God is angry. God isn’t happy. Go to Rivers, they kill people.
“Go to Akwa Ibom, they kill people. Go to Bayelsa, they kill people, incarcerate innocent people. God is angry with Buhari. You can’t continue to take the blood of the innocent.
“Look at my predictions for the year 2016 for Nigeria, everything has come to pass. This is a different ball game. He that will take me, he that will go against me must first of all defeat God. If these were the kind of violence that greeted Buhari’s election would he ever be president.”
Reacting to the just concluded expanded retreat of the National Economic Council, NEC in Abuja, Fayose wondered if the resolutions made will not be swept under the carpet as it is the usual norm.
