Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose said that he has been vindicated for his pre-2015 calls against voting President Muhammadu Buhari into office.
He stated this in a Twitter thread on Thursday after the president spurned the National Assembly’s invitation to address it on the state of security in the country.
Fayose called on those who opposed him at the time to apologise for misleading Nigerians into voting the retired general.
Recall that Buhari spurned the invitation a day after the Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami SAN stated that the National Assembly lacked the constitutional powers to summon the president to appear before over insecurity.
He added that since security was the preserve of the Executive Arm of government, it was at the president’s discretion whether or not to honour the invitation.

“Before and after 2015, those of you who were opposed to my views on the Buhari’s Presidency then cannot but agree today that Nigerians were misled to have elected him,” Fayose said.
“Methinks they should publicly apologise for misleading Nigerians just like others have been doing.
“I said it on December 1, that President Buhari won’t honour the House of Reps invitation on the worsened security situation in the country. Truly he didn’t.
“With a democratically elected President who does not have regard for other arms of govt, how else do you describe a dictator,” Fayose added.
