The governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose has taken a swipe on the President, Muhammadu Buhari on his alleged fight against corruption.

Fayose vows to lead opposition against APC

The governor said Buhari is targetting members of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP instead of an overall fight.

Fayose disclosed this through his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi while speaking with NAIJA CENTER NEWS on Tuesday.

Fayose accused Buhari of being biased, urging him to extend his fight against corruption beyond the immediate administration to display a sign of seriousness to Nigerians.

The governor advised the President to probe how the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign was funded by the former governor of Rivers State, Rotimi Amaechi and the National leader of the APC and a former governor of Lagos State, Bola tinubu.

The governor said  “President Buhari’s fight against corruption is selective, targeted at members of the PDP. Gov Fayose is not opposed to the fight against corruption, but it must be total.

“If Buhari want Nigerians to see him as being serious and not partial, he suppose to extend probe beyond the immediate past administration.

“He should probe the money donated by the APC members to fund his campaign and election. Big donors like Rotimi Amaechi, Bola Tinubu, among others should tell Nigerians the sources of the money they donated to get Buhari into power.

“Buhari also need to publish account of Petroleum Trust Fund ( PTF) under him as chairman then. Buhari should reopen the Halibuton scandal under Obasanjo administration”

Fayose asked the President to probe Atiku and APC governors who have properties in Dubai.

“The APC members like Atiku Abubakar and APC governors having property in Dubai should be unmasked. The involvement of Buhari’s wife in scandal which Obasanjo mentioned in his latest book should be investigated.

“When Buhari has done all these, many Nigerians will take him serious. As it is now, only PDP members are targeted”

Speaking on TKO Aluko interview on a National Tv, Fayose alleged that the disclosure was a move by APC to silence him because of his continous criticism.

According to the governor who quoted the international observer, Ekiti governorship election was the most transparent in Nigeria history.

Fayose told NAIJA CENTER NEWS that “The appearance of TKO Aluko on the Channels TV was packaged by the Buhari and the APC to silence Governor Ayodele Fayose because of the persistent criticism of Buhari’s obnoxious policies.

“Aluko was rented to tell those lies on the TV and rubbish the election. We know but we are not moved. This is an election which was adjudged the most transparent in Nigeria history by the local and international observers and as well international communities.

“The US particularly commended the security for doing a good job. This is an election which was challenged in the court and the apex court in Nigeria ruled that the election that brought Fayose into power in Ekiti was free and fair.

“What else does the APC want? Let it be known that nothing Buhari or the APC can do to silence Gov Fayose. Strong opposition is an ingredient of virile democracy.

“Nigeria need strong opposition because Buhari is dictator who need to be checked by strong opposition. Those who are applauding Buhari now will soon find themselves in the belly of Buhari”
