I will continue to attack Buhari, says Fayose

The Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has said he will not stop
attacking the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress,
Maj. Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.).
The governor, who said he owed nobody any apology for exposing the
alleged hypocrisy of the APC leaders, accused them of placing personal
interests above national interest.
Fayose, who spoke through his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Idowu
Adelusi, in Ado-Ekiti on Thursday, was reacting to criticisms that had
trailed his campaign for the re-election of President Goodluck
Jonathan of the Peoples Democratic Party and his continuous attacks on
Buhari.
He, however, said he had nothing personal against Buhari.

According to him, the APC has not only packaged lies and tried to
foist such on Nigerians, it has also compromised the Independent
National Electoral Commission to rig the election earlier scheduled
for February 14.
He said, "I remember then as the ad hoc chairman of the PDP committee
to shop for the presidential candidate to replace former President
Olusegun Obasanjo, a crop of suitable, brilliant, healthy and
competent northern politicians in the PDP were shortlisted by me for
Obasanjo to pick from, but he overruled the list and asked me to
contact the late Umaru Musa Yar' Adua because he preferred him.
"In fairness to the late President, he objected to the offer on health
grounds, but Obasanjo insisted that he must be the President."
Fayose wondered why Buhari could not appear at the APC organised rally
in London on Wednesday if indeed he was not on hospital bed.
He said the much-talked about Chatham House lecture was a face-saving
measure to cover the true position of Buhari's health, adding that
most of those attacking him were doing so because he stuck out his
neck to expose the lies of the APC.
The governor said after he proved to the world that Buhari was
interviewed in Abuja and not in London, the APC had not been able to
prove him wrong.
