Fayose Escapes Death

Former Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti State has revealed how he escaped death.

He said; “It was on our way from the assembly that some people trailed us in a pick-up purposely to attack us. We managed to escape. In short, one of them nearly broke my head.”

“When I got to the Assembly, they said they were not ready and that they would inform me when they were ready. As a matter of fact, since they accused me of financial misappropriation, they were supposed to be ready.”

“I got this by noon yesterday (Thursday) and I called the speaker to confirm whether it was true and he confirmed it. You know my style. When the EFCC (Economic and Financial Crimes Commission) wanted me.”

“So, I have come to the House of Assembly to tell them I’m available for their questions. I drove down from Lagos to tell them that there was no hiding place for some of us, so. I am here and ready to give an account of my stewardship.”

“I will not follow the multitude to sin. I want to believe that selective justice will not help our country.”

“I have condemned anyone who says that in Nigeria, when you come to the All Progressives Congress, then you become a saint. I am telling you, I will never become a member of the APC. I will never defect.”

“If I wanted a soft-landing against my party, against my candidate, that would have happened in the past. I stood my ground during the elections. So, that is impossible.”
