Fayemi warns PDP over Threat to Tinubu’s Life
The Former Governor of Ekiti State, Dr Kayode Fayemi, has said that the All Progressives Congress believe and have strong proof that President Goodluck Jonathan has plans to start an Interim Government in Nigeria.
Fayemi also claimed that the ruling Peoples Democratic Party, the Federal Government and President Jonathan, have become desperate, reiterating the alleged threat over the life of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
While speaking, he also berated Governor Ayodele Fayose for spreading lies and rumours about Gen. Muhamadu Buhari’s health status.
He said: “We have heard somebody whose own definition of politics is about lying, saying Gen Buhari was taken to a hospital in London. Buhari never went to hospital throughout the 10 days he was in London because I was with him throughout.
“Fayose even used his mother as an example of how people who are old used to behave just because he wanted to drive home a point that Gen Buhari was sick. This is like disgracing his own mother in the public and it is against the value Ekiti is known for.”
On Jonathan’s alleged invitation of Tinubu to be a part of his Interim Government plans, Fayemi said, “President Jonathan is becoming desperate by the day and he would stop at nothing to return to government. You know what they did in Ekiti. So, there was nothing Tinubu said that was not verifiable.
“I have evidence that he was invited to be part of Interim Government as a way of dividing us as a prominent member of our party. There is absolutely nothing they cannot do to distract us because they could see that Presidency is gradually slipping off their hands.
“It was good that these alarms were being raised and put in the front burner that there was a sinister intention to subvert the will of the people.
“What Nigerians are looking for now is for the elections to be held on March 28 as scheduled by INEC and for the victor who was overwhelmingly elected by the popular votes to be announced.
“We as party leaders and members of opposition are ready to congratulate the winner, but if they go ahead and subvert the will of the people, they will surely go to jail.”
Fayemi also declared that the government of Jonathan would be held responsible if anything bad happened to Tinubu.
“If Jonathan loses this election, he can still get whatever he wants. It is a matter of negotiation with Buhari, who had promised not to probe the past governments.
“But I want to say that we will hold Jonathan’s government responsible, if even the minutest thing happens to Tinubu.”
