Ekiti state Governor Ayodele Fayose has boasted that he is gifted in defeating incumbents, adding that President Muhammadu Buhari will be next to taste defeat in 2019.
The Governor who is the current chairman of the People Democratic Party (PDP) Governors forum, cited how he won two sitting governors in Ekiti to become two term Governor of the state.
Recall that Fayose defeated an incumbent Niyi Adebayo in the Ekiti state governorship poll in 2003. He repeated the same feat against former Governor Kayode Fayemi in 2014.
”I have penchant for taking powers; that one in Buhari’s hand I will take it. I’m going straight to that villa. I’m the next president.
”I want to be the next president of Nigeria. My own won’t be this change that has brought nothing. We are going to represent the people well and tell them the truth,” the governor boasted.
The governor who stated this at a meeting with political holders in the state at the state Government House, urged former Governors Fayemi and Adebayo to kill their desire for contesting the next Gubernatorial election in the state.
According to him, his achievement as the state governor would make the people of the state to follow anybody he supports for the office.
”Just because Ayo Fayose has won a second term to become governor of Ekiti, some people also think they can come back now, but I want to tell them that it is not possible.
”I am the man wholeheartedly loved by Ekiti people because of the many developmental projects that have brought great infrastructural and developmental advancement to Ekiti,” he said.
