Cabal: Fayose Mocks Aisha Buhari Over Calls To Re-Elect Husband

3 Min Read

Immediate-past Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose has mocked Wife of the President, Aisha Buhari over her calls on Nigerians to re-elect her husband, President Muhammadu Buhari.

Aisha Buhari, while speaking Saturday during the launch of the APC Zonal Campaign Rally for the North-West held in Sani Abacha Stadium, Kofar Mata, Kano, said, “In 2015, the APC made some promises; and I have come out to campaign for its victory in the 2019 polls because the party has fulfilled some of the promises it made to Nigerians.

“Those promises include; the school feeding programme for primary school pupils, the N-Power programme, under which some unemployed graduates are being gainfully engaged and are earning N30,000 monthly.

“The conditional cash transfer scheme, which is being executed through the office of Vice President Yemi Osinbajo,”

But in a Sunday statement through his spokesman, Lere Olayinka, Fayose queried Mrs Buhari’s call, after she had raised the alarm that a powerful cabal had taken over her husband’s government, preventing it from adequately implementing its plans to better the lives of Nigerians.

Fayose said, “In October 2016, the First Lady told Nigerians the truth about the incapacitation of her husband and went on to say that should things continue till 2019 like they were in 2016 , she won’ t go out and campaign for him and ask any woman to vote.

“In December last year , she reinforced this position by claiming that a cabal controlling her husband ’s government made it fail. This is January 2019 and the question the First Lady must be asked is; what positive change has Buhari’s government made on Nigeria and its people between 2016 and now?

“Is the First Lady going to be campaigning to Nigerians to subject themselves to another four years of the country under the same cabal that she had accused of running her husband ’s government aground?

“Most importantly, what will Aisha Buhari be telling those women whose husband ’s and children were killed by rampaging herdsmen? What will she tell the women whose husband are among the over 12 million Nigerians that lost their jobs in the last three years? What will be her message to the women who can no longer feed their children owing to over 300 per cent increment in the price of food items?

“Rather than wasting public fund jumping up and down to seek the votes of Nigerians for a husband that is not in charge of his government, what the First Lady should do is to assist Buhari to pack his things
in readiness for his exit from the Presidential Villa this year.”
