When was the last time that any Nigerian state had a civilian governor as reckless as Peter Ayodele Fayose?
Between January and now Fayose has broken several decorum rules of Nigerian politics and it is time to give him a short lesson in History. Many ardent Buhari supporters have long written me off as a PDP mole so I am in a position to play the referee here.
In his self-appointed role as Premier Attack Dog Fayose has made many allegations against APC and its presidential candidate General Muhammadu Buhari. I will condense the six most sensational to be
1] at 73 Buhari is too old to be the President of Nigeria
2] Buhari is in poor health
3] Buhari is likely to die in office if he is elected president
4] Presidents of Nigeria from the North West zone tend to die in office such as Murtala Mohamed, Sani Abacha and Umaru Yarádua
5] Buhari’s recent trip to London was a secret medical trip and
6] North should wait until 2019 to produce a president.
There were many other smaller allegations but let us concentrate on the main ones that have political and historical import. Each of these six condensed charges that Fayose made is problematic when viewed in the context of Nigeria’s political history.
Why should he make such Statements?
