Fayose also denied reports that he was involved in a battle with the Chief Judge of the State, Justice Ayodeji Daramola.

The governor made the remarks on February 29, 2016, while inaugurating members of the Ekiti State Judicial Service Commission, (ESJSC), Daily Post reports.

“Ekiti State is my project and its interest comes first. There is no ill-feeling between me and the Chief Judge. We are both passionate about Ekiti as our project,” Fayose said.

“Those going round town with the rumour that there is a cold war between us are only mischievous. Let them know that they are disappointed already.

“Members of the commission were carefully chosen and they are men of integrity and that was why it took me some time to select them. These are people who will not pervert justice because whoever perverts justice perverts eternity for himself. The judiciary and those working there are managing a critical aspect of life.

“My criticizing Buhari is to help the people have dividends of democracy‎. If nobody is talking because they are afraid, you will have a dictator in every leader‎. It is to keep people on their toes for the love of everybody‎,” he added.

Fayose recently accused Buhari of plotting to islamize Nigeria.
