Governor Ayo Fayose speaks on the
victory of Ahmed Makarfi at the Supreme court. Fayose says he would have burnt
his membership card if the court's judgment favored Ali Modu Sheriff. He says
Sheriff and his followers won’t go free for causing party members pain Ekiti
state governor, Ayo Fayose, said he would have burnt his Peoples Democratic
Party (PDP) membership card if the court had declared Ali Modu Sheriff chairman
of the party. He said that he would have also destroyed the party’s flag in his
possession.
Fayose, who returned to the state on
Friday after the Wednesday’s Supreme Court session, stated this while
addressing PDP supporters in Ado-Ekiti. He said that he would have destroyed
his membership card of the party and the flag right at the court premises if
the verdict had been in favour of Sheriff. “I never imagined myself being in
the same party with impostors,” he said. The governor, however, said that
Sheriff and his followers had been forgiven but won’t go scot-free for causing
the party members so much pain. “I went to court with a perfume which I wanted
to use to spray my cards and party flags and set them ablaze even within the
court premises if Sheriff had won; that was why I went to court. “Although I
believe that we remain the same PDP family, no one can cause our party such
pains and embarrassment and expect that he will go without being asked to
account for his actions. “The `no victor, no vanquished’ that we said was a
mere political slogan. Whoever that participated in this charade must show some
reasonable level of remorse for his actions,” he said.
NAIJ.com previously reported that
Fayose said Nigerians are fed up with the Buhari-led government and that the
Peoples Democratic Party will rule Nigeria again in 2019. Fayose through his
special assistant on public communication and new media, Lere Olayinka in
reaction to the Ahmed Makarfi's victory against Ali Modu Sheriff at the Supreme
Court said the ruling of the Supreme Court shows that democracy has come to
stay in Nigeria.
Recall that NAIJ.com reported that
the Abuja Supreme Court on Wednesday, July 13, said the Makarfi-led faction of
the PDP is the original and only recognized faction of the party.
