Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, has said the economic
problems facing the country has gone beyond talks of injecting N350bn
into the economy through execution of capital projects.
The governor, who said the Federal Government should stop deceiving
Nigerians lamented that Nigeria under President Muhammadu Buhari had
moved from economic recession to economic depression.
“Our President, through his actions and inactions is destroying
everything that makes Nigeria a country and well-meaning Nigerians must
stand-up to be counted in the crusade to save the country from going
under,” he said.
According to a statement in Ado-Ekiti on Sunday
by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere
Olayinka, the governor said the president should realise that Nigerians
will not measure his government on the basis of what his predecessors
failed to do, but on what he did or neglected to do between May 29, 2016
and May 29, 2019.
He stated that it was the president that went to foreign countries
to de-market Nigeria by calling all Nigerians thieves and dishonest
people.
“Which foreign investor will invest his money in a country of
dishonest people? Who made investors to leave Nigeria if not President
Buhari, who created atmosphere of economic and political instability in
the country by his acts of nepotism and vindictiveness?”
Advising Buhari to rather look for a solution instead of blaming
his predecessors, Fayose said, “No nation has ever reached greatness by
their leaders engaging in blame game, nepotism and vengeance as being
done by the president and his All Progressives Congress. government.
“Nigerians must begin to speak out now before the country is
totally destroyed by this one-man government, which does not see any
idea coming from those perceived as opposed to the government as worthy
of consideration.
“Like I said before, the main issue confronting Nigerians now is
hunger and hunger does not speak the language of politics. It is
therefore no longer about politics; it is about preventing hunger from
killing Nigerians.”
