Fayose Quits PDP, Says Presidential Poll Free, Fair, Credible
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose has resigned his membership of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Fayose made his intention knoe on Wednesday while featuring as a guest on a programme on ARISE News.

Fayose served as Governor of Ekiti State from 2003 to 2007 and 2011 to 2015 on PDP’s platform.

However, Fayose’s decision to quit the party appears to be connected with perceived irreconcilable differences in the PDP, which according to him, has fractured the party.

“Let me say this, from today(yesterday) I stay off PDP. In party politics there are certain facts you must be able to speak.

“I am 62 and I can’t, at this age, begin lying. When something is wrong with your family, confess,” he said.

The former governor, who claimed to have fought for the interest of the party over the years, blamed the loss of the PDP in the recent presidential election on the leadership of the party.

According to him, PDP is already fractured before the election, with so many aggrieved aspirants whom were allegedly swindled by the leadership of the party on one hand and the inability of the presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar to reach an agreement with the G-5 governors.

Fayose traced the problem of the PDP to the North-west zonal congress which he said was rigged against Rabiu Kwankwaso in favour of Aminu Tambuwal that led to the latter leaving the party.

“I warned Atiku that the problem will consume PDP. I told him there was danger ahead,” he said, adding that the G-5 governors demanded that Atiku make an official announcement to run for only one term and hand over to any member in the south but “Ayu was leading Atiku to Golgotha.”

Fayose also warned the Labour Party Presidential candidate and second runner-up in the presidential polls, Peter Obi to “run away from the PDP” as the current ovation for the opposition has nothing to do with the PDP.

According to him, if the PDP had believed in Obi, they should have given him the party’s ticket.

He saluted Obi’s courage for being able to defeat the likes of Tinubu in Lagos, describing him as “a phenomenon” and “the man of the moment.”

He said that Obi’s victory in Lagos has proved that things are no longer the same.

He argued that for Obi to win in Lagos shows the process was so transparent and as such the outcome of the election should be accepted by all.

Fayose attributed the credibility of the polls to the use of the BVAS which, according to him, is responsible for a realistic number of voters compared to the past when over a million votes were churned out from some states in the Northern part of the country.

Fayose, however,faulted some of the protesters, calling for the cancellation of the polls, describing them as paid agents of the PDP.
