Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose, has said he is not a prophet, but only fasting and prayers will save Governor Sim Fubara of Rivers state from the impeachment process initiated against him by the members of the State House of Assembly who are loyal to FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike.
Fayose disclosed this during an interview on Channels Television on Friday, January 9.
While speaking on the feud between Wike and Fubara, Fayose faulted Governor Fubara for appointing people into his cabinet and spending state funds without recourse and approval of the State Assembly.
“I’m not a prophet, but what is happening in Rivers now, it will take fasting and prayers to save Fubara; it takes the President intervening.
How can he be appointing people in his cabinet and spending money without constitutional backing and approval of the State Assembly?
People are talking about Wike; remove Wike. Can you remove who or what he is? Can’t you see people popping out during his rallies?”Fayose asked
According to Fayose, he had years ago warned Governor Fubara on his inauguration day against betraying Wike.
“During his inauguration, I told Wike that I wanted to tell Fubara one or two things against betraying him, but Wike said I shouldn’t worry, that Fubara will not do it, I told Fubara not to fight that man that he will fight and not stop fighting.”he said
The former Ekiti governor said even President Bola Tinubu hates ingratitude, stating that if not by the grace of God, those whom the President has helped could have abandoned him, giving an instance that if the President did not make Wike FCT Minister, the Minister could have been buried politically.
