Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose on Wednesday held a rally celebrating three years of his victory in the June 21, 2014 governorship election.

Fayose defeated Dr. Kayode Fayemi in all the 16 local government areas in the election.

Fayose accused President Muhammadu Buhari of nepotism, stating that the 2017 budget did not capture the interests of Nigerians.

“A government of nepotism can’t stand the test of time. The economy of this country has shrunk under this government. I say they will go, they must go. Nigerians are hungry and angry.

“I’m not one Nigerian that will chicken out to join a political party. We will remain here telling them the truth, telling them the economy is not working, we stand for the truth.”

He added that nothing was budgeted as a project in Ekiti.

Fayose said, “The policy of Buhari’s government is anti-Ekiti. If you check properly, nothing was budgeted as a project for Ekiti in the 2017 budget.  That is why Nigeria must be restructured, so that a state can control its own resources.

“The APC-led Federal Government is fighting everybody, the judiciary and legislators as well as the press are not spared. They are running a lawless government and that was why they refused to release Col. Bello Dasuki (retd.) and El-ZakkyZakky despite court orders. This is not the kind of Nigeria of our dream.

“The APC will be upset in 2018, we will crush them and that is why you have to be strong and firm. I am a leader in Nigeria and nobody can gag or cow me, because this country belongs to all of us. Today, Nigerians are hungry and angry. There is so much nepotism and poverty in the land, so this government must go.”
