Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose,has alleged that President Muhammadu Buhari’s inability to present his certificate was why he is not “performing.”
Fayose made the allegation on Monday night in Ado-Ekiti as members of the Ekiti drivers’ unions assembled at the government house.
He said the large crowd meant that the people were with him and not the All Progressives Congress (APC).
“It is an abnormality to block the gates of the government house,” the governor said. “If they say I gave instruction to drivers unions to withdraw their services, let the APC give a counter-instruction to them if they are popular.
“They (security agencies) blocked gates of the government house because they don’t want people to come in but you shamed them by still coming.”
Fayose added that, “They [APC] brought them from Ondo, Kogi, Osun and other neighbouring states, they are all foreigners. They have no voting strength.
“I will stand up to you (APC) in the election, we will match them bumper to bumper.”
He added that, “The president was asked to tender his certificate, he hired Senior Advocates of Nigeria. They said it was enough for him to present tissue paper as certificate, that’s why he is not performing.”
