The Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has accused Bode George, of deliberately reading meanings to his statement for political gains.
GoldenNewsNg gathered that the former Deputy National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Bode George had accused Fayode of saying Governor Godwin Obaseki will lose the forthcoming Edo State governorship election.
Bode George faulted Fayose’s claim, stressing that the governor was on his own.
“I am countering such remarks by telling the people of Edo State that we, members of the PDP in the South-West, that we are in support of Obaseki. We pray for him and we will work and support him to win the election,” he had said.
But reacting in a post on his Twitter page, Fayose pointed out that he said it clearly that he believed “Obaseki will win, but he should honour
his agreement with the PDP by not returning to APC after assuming
office for the second term for flimsy excuses.”
The former Ekiti governor reminded Bode George of his
statement expressing his desire for PDP to lose the Ekiti, Osun and
Rivers States governorship elections.
