Snippets of
Governor Fayose's Speech at a Special Dinner held at Ekiti Government House in
Celebration of 2017 World Women's Day
-I want to
appreciate you all very specially for your strategic position in history for a
world without women will be a world of crisis.
-Government is
not expected to do business, it is expected to create enabling environment,
that is what we are doing right now.
-You are all
help mates and companions we can never wish away.
-We have to
rediscover Ekiti women and tell them they can be where they ought to be, women
should be respected and appreciated.
-It is not
what has gone wrong, it's about how we can catch up with the lost grounds. This
event will henceforth be celebrated in Ekiti.
-Before we
were born, our fathers have always harassed our mothers, we can't afford to
continue that way. There is no life without a woman.
-It is very
irresponsible and reckless for a man to beat his wife. Allow your wife the
right of place in your home.
-Some of us
don't have the attitude we are supposed to have because of the way we treat our
wives, there must be a change of attitude.
-Let us expose
our women so they can become ministers and even presidents, our case cannot be
different.
-My wife is
very beautiful, if I don't celebrate her, who will I celebrate?
-I have 5
sons, I have no daughter but I look forward to a day I will begin to harvest
daughter in-laws.
-If the home
front is not right, the system will have problem.
-My provost,
stand up, this woman taught me in ND 1 and 2 in the polytechnic, today I am her
boss, that is the irony of life.
-As a parting
gift for Olori Ajero(a civil servant) in the spirit of Women's Day Celebration,
I upgrade her from Executive Secretary to the position of Permanent Secretary
with immediate effect.
-Tomorrow at
the Stadium, I will appoint two other women, don't ask me who.
-Commissioner
for Agriculture, are you here? Provide for me 200 female farmers, I will
support them with #200m immediately!
-Our women
must go beyond the kitchen and the other room, I have told wife to call all the
Oloris, we must achieve this agenda of making our women visible.
-I want to
leave this state with landmarks, the governor’s office will the there after my
departure, the High Court Complex will be there for life, I want to thank you
very much Mrs Alade, Mrs Faseluka, wife of the speaker and our Senator of the
federal republic, Abiodun Olujimi.
-Join me to
produce a governor that will listen to you, I will never allow my personal
interest thrive, whosoever you ask us to follow we shall follow. Whoever will
be there we shall put there through you, we shall put the person there
together.
-My house of
assembly members, stand up for recognition, I appreciate you.
-Chief of
Staff can you stand up for recognition...
-I thank you
all, God bless you.
