A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, and Chairman of the PDP Revival Group, Mallam Tanko Ibrahim, has criticized the former Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, over comments that If Femi Fani-Kayode leaves the PDP, he will become politically dead.

EKO HOT BLOG recalls that Governor Fayose had stated that he is 100 percent sure that Fani-Kayode is not leaving the PDP, that if he eventually leaves, he would be politically dead as a frontline Nigerian
However, Reacting to the statement, Tanko, a northern chieftain of PDP, said Governor Fayose missed the mark on Fani-Kayode status as PDP leader.
He said; “Governor Fayose has lost touch with prevailing realities in the party, how can you say Fani-Kayode will be dead politically if he leaves the PDP? Fani-Kayode had been a thorn in the ruling party’s flesh since the Buhari government came to power in 2015.

“If FFK leaves PDP, it is PDP that will die politically and not FFK. He is the strength and spirit behind PDP.”
“He is the one that keeps everyone in the country that is opposed to Buhari going with his fighting spirit. Without FFK, APC will eat PDP for breakfast.”
Mallam Tanko also condemns a statement credited to the Ekiti ex-Governor, when he said Fani-Kayode is not a day-to-day politician.
Tanko said, ” How can you say someone who led a successful presidential campaign is not a politician? He has been in politics since 1990; he grew up in politics, it is absurd to say such against a person of Chief Fani-Kayode,”.
