Why Ekiti Governor has so many enemies

Oluwawole said this during the International Women’s Day celebration celebration organised by Governor Fayose.

Oluwawole said the Governor’s enemies are angry because they have not been able to match up his achievements.

The Ekiti House Speaker also said Fayose is hated because of the kind of bitter politics Nigerian politicians play.

Oluwawole said during at the International Women’s Day celebration celebration organised by Governor Fayose.

According to Daily Post, the Speaker said “…This is one of the reasons some political elites loathe this gentleman governor. They have never been able to match his achievements. He has singled out women for celebration, particularly in 2017.

“He is committing a lot of resources to the welfare of our women. All these efforts are aimed at banishing poverty from among the womenfolk. No one has done anything of this magnitude before now.

“I congratulate all women in our dear state and the entire nation, particularly the wife of the governor, Evangelist Feyisetan Fayose; wife of Mr Deputy Governor, Deaconess Janet Olusola; and my wife, Pastor Moji Oluwawole, on this auspicious occasion.

“As long as the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is in government, our women will continue to be celebrated, especially in Ekiti State.

“We will continue to consolidate on all achievements we have recorded under Fayose. For more than a century, nobody has thought of upgrading our Oja Oba to an international standard market; nobody thought of giving us a flyover.

“Nobody thought Ekiti roads need to be dualised. Some even said our state does not deserve an airport. Nobody thought our women should be accorded a place of priority. Fayose has thought of all these a long time ago ahead of his traducers.

“I congratulate Mr Governor too for being the leading light; the divinely-ordained architect of modern Ekiti. May our women have a fruitful Women’s Day celebration.”

Governor Ayo Fayose recently called on the Federal Government to withdraw his Department of State Services (DSS) and police security details attached to him.
