Amid the political rivalry with the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Nyesom Wike, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Ayodele Fayose, on Tuesday, urged Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers State to emulate his counterpart from Ekiti State, Biodun Oyebanji.
Fayose said Fubara should be like Oyebanji, who once begged
him for support.
Speaking in an interview, Tuesday, on Arise Television,
Fayose urged Fubara to be humble to Wike because the Minister gave him the
platform.
He said: “May I say this to you and to Nigerians, you
brought up, like the example I have given, you brought up your child, you
trained her, and somebody says I want to marry this girl.
“The credit goes to you. If you have left that girl rotten,
ordinary carpenters and people who have no capacity will be chasing her.
“He must have capacity at different levels of life. Life is
about level by level. God has graduated this life like a pyramid, you have
Asiwaju up there, the governors, the ministers, everybody is at a level.
“You can’t tell me, majority of times, you can’t tell me a
man who is down the ladder wants to marry a queen somewhere. They will tell
you, you don’t have the capacity.
“So let’s go back to the issues, everybody must have helped
everybody in life. But God in himself, God says I hate ingratitude. I will only
fight with what I have left.
“You can’t sack Wike from Rivers politics, you can’t sack me
from Ekiti politics. I’m not supposed to say what I want to say to you now and
I will say it to you.
“It’s about Ekiti politics. I was in this house three years
ago. The current governor of Ekiti is of the APC extraction. I am of the PDP.
He came to this house, he said, leader, I would want to visit with you. I said,
you’re welcome, Your Excellency.
“He came here and sat on the chair and said, Your
Excellency, I want to beg you, I want you to come to my support and my aid. I
want you to stand by me in this government. I didn’t go to him. He’s the
governor. He deserves all honour.”
