Fayose stated this at his declaration of intent in Abuja on Thursday, September 28, 2017.
He described himself as a representation of the voice of the voiceless.
“To the down trodden and those of who go to bed hungry on a daily basis, I assure you that help is on the way," he said.

“To my haters, I want to tell them that they will watch me enter the Villa in 2019 because I’m Nigeria’s President in waiting.
“If you have not seen any miracle, this is your opportunity because I am a miracle.
“This calling of mine is without repentance and God will not apologise to anyone for making me president come 2019,” he added.
Speaking on the earlier position of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)against his ambition, Fayose maintained that 'power belongs to God.'

“If PDP gives me ticket, I will use it and win. They say they have zoned presidency to the north, what if nobody comes out from the north?"
"Whoever wants to contest for the seat of President, what are they afraid of? Let them come out. We don't want to package anyone for president gain. God forbid," he added.
