A former governor of Ekiti state, Ayodele Fayose, has reacted to presidency claims on why President Muhammadu Buhari did not punish him for his virulent remarks against him.
You recall that presidential spokesman, Femi Adesina had in his latest article said Buhari would have “dealt with” Fayose and Nyesom Wike, governor of Rivers state, over their “combative remarks” against the presidency but he chose to be mature and condone the duo excesses as a father of the nation.
Reacting to the piece, Fayose warned Adesina not to “wake a sleeping lion”.
He added that refusal to heed his warning could attract consequences that Adesina would be unable to cope with..
Fayose’s rebuttal was contained in a series of tweets on Sunday.
Fayose said he chose to refrain from comment about issues relating to Buhari because he has realised that “Buhari’s presidency is deaf and dumb”.
“On the comment by my brother and friend, @FemAdesina, on the President not “dealing with myself and Gov Wike,” President Buhari, in my opinion is an “Accidental President,” who is not only clueless but unconscious of happenings in his own Presidency,” he tweeted.
“A man who can’t defend or protect his immediate family is not in anyway better than an effigy. If not, those around him won’t be talking about a President “punishing” serving governors or even ordinary Nigerians as if they are his servants.
