Kwankwaso Berates Fayose Over Unguarded Utterances, Says His 'Day Of Reckoning' Is Imminent

Kano State Governor, Rabiu Kwankwaso, has berated
his Ekiti State counterpart, Ayo Fayose, over what he
called the latter’s unguarded utterances.

The Governor who led the Hausa community in Lagos,
in a visit to the National leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu, to plan for the forthcoming election, used the occasion to react to
what he calls the seeming disrespect for elders by Fayose.

Kwankwaso was reacting to Fayose’s various
vilifying statements about Buhari and that he
(Kwankwaso) and former vice president, Atiku
Abubakar, were secretly working against the All Pro­
gressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Gen­
eral Muhammadu Buhari.

The Kano State governor, while fielding questions
from journalists during the visit, said Fayose should
be mindful of the fact that the day of reckoning would
soon come.

Read His Statement In Part:
“I have this belief that in this part of the country are
people who are positively cultured. This part of
Nigeria we have very respectful people, ranging from
Awolowo, Shonekam, Obasanjo, MKO Abiola, Asiwaju
and so on and so forth.

“But anytime I listen to this young man in Ekiti State,
I feel terribly embarrassed as a governor and I feel
bad for Yoruba people.

“This young man, I don’t know what went wrong, I
used to know him, although I was not very close to
him. Of course when I was a governor, he was not a
governor, he was governor after I left Government
House in 2003.

“These days if I look at him, I think many things are
wrong with his words and even his mouth. You tell him
that he should learn how to respect elders.

“Even those of us who are governors with him are his
seniors and in this business of politics, like all other
businesses, I think seniority should be respected".
