Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State, in an interview he granted to Sunday Vanguard, said that people who brought Buhari to power will end up in his stomach. He said that bringing Buhari back to power is like the story of a rich man who brought a lion home.
Reacting to a question on Buhari's anti corruption war, Fayose said: "Fighting corruption is a great thing. It is good, but anything that does not represent the truth is simply corruption.
His words: "Nine years doesn’t know what Nigeria represents and that was why they voted for him because you must know who you are giving your life to – who you are giving your future to.
"You must know you are not taking your life to Golgotha. So, as a man who knew President Buhari - then I was in Ibadan. I knew the total misrule of 1984 to 1985 – how the military suffered Nigerians, how a lot of leaders were clamped in chains using decree 2.
"So, President Buhari is living true to type. If you look at the way he is governing Nigeria today, it is the same way he did before; by his appointments, by is taking away the right of the people, by doing things without recourse to due process.
"Fighting corruption is a great thing. It is good, but anything that does not represent the truth is simply corruption. You’re oppressing some people now either because they are not from your region or because you had issues with them before; it is a mission for vengeance.
"So, let me round it up, there is nothing personal between President Buhari and myself. Let us look at the APC, most of the people they were bashing in those days, but when they get to APC they become saints.
"I have told the people who brought Buhari that they will end up inside his stomach. The story is like the story of a rich man who brought a lion home.
