This Is Why I Can Never Join APC – Governor Fayose Reveals

The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Lagos State Chapter, has taken a swipe at the Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, for his unholy romance with the key leaders of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC.

The party’s Lagos State Chairman, Otunba Adewale, was reacting to the manner in which Fayose openly acknowledged the political sagacity of the former Lagos State Governor, Bola Tinubu, during his 65th birthday celebration.

Adewale in a statement made available to Journalists, described such romance as unfortunate, and a major blow on the confidence of the grass root members and supporters of the PDP.

“I am surprised that Governor Ayodele Fayose, the Chairman of the PDP Governors Forum, could throw cautions to the wind and rub his alleged alliance with the leadership of the ruling party in the South-West, on our faces.

“As a leader and beneficiary of the PDP goodwill, I expect him to clearly understand that members and supporters are looking up to him and such unguided actions demoralise them.

“No doubt, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu paid his dues towards the success of APC in the last general elections. He deserves the admiration of members of the ruling party for providing a responsible leadership within his party.

“I want to advise Governor Fayose, to emulate Bola Tinubu’s team spirit and respect for party organs, in his dealings within the PDP, and not embark on actions that may further demoralise our members.

“The political sagacity of Tinubu is worthy of study by upcoming politicians. However, open acknowledgement of Asiwaju’s doggedness that saw our party out of power in 2015, is a mockery on the PDP.

“It will be recalled, that Governor Ayodele Fayose was present at the inauguration of Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State, some weeks ago, and enjoyed the company of APC leaders in attendance, while he neglected the welcoming party and thanksgiving service organised by the good people of Ondo kingdom, in honour of their son, former Governor Segun Mimiko.

“Unequivocally, the said advertorial is a confirmation of Governor Fayose’s anti-party activities that have finally come to fore. I wonder how the APC would have viewed such advertorial for former President Jonathan, by former Governor Fashola or Governor Aregbesola for instance, in the build up to the 2015 general election.

“Even during the first or second republic, no opposition leader openly embraced Pa Awolowo, despite Awolowo’s popularity, achievements, and sagacity. The fact that Asiwaju Bola Tinubu has done very well for himself and his political party, is not an excuse for Governor Fayose’s demonstration of impunity and disregard to party loyalty.

“It is an aberration for Governor Fayose to publicly acknowledge the role played by Asiwaju in destroying PDP that made Fayose who he is today.

“It is impossible to also forget the role played by Asiwaju Tinubu in the emergence of President Buhari as the Nigerian President, a decision that has brought untold economic hardship on Nigerians.

“Obviously, the choice of President Buhari wasn’t in the interest of the people, but for personal aggrandisement of a few politicians.”

He added: “I wish to sincerely appeal to our members not to be deterred by actions targeted at damping their spirit, as the storm is over already. What we are seeing presently, are last minute efforts by a few wolves in sheep skin struggling to have a safe landing now that the PDP has been returned to the People by Senator Ali Modu-Sheriff, the National Chairman.”
