Governor of Ekiti state and Chairman of PDP Governors Forum, Mr. Ayodele
Fayose, has officially unveiled his presidential ambition at the Peoples
Democratic Party,
PDP’s National Convention currently taking place at the
Eagles Square, Abuja.
According to Vanguard report, Govenor Fayose who arrived the arena wearing his 2019 presidential
campaign shirt and cap equally had his entourage carrying his 2019 presidential
campaign posters while the crowd gave him a roaring welcome.
Recall that Governor Fayose had in June this year said that he would take
presidential powers out of President Muhammadu Buhari’s hand to become
Nigeria’s next president by contesting the 2019 presidential elections. In the
statement, Fayose who spoke at a meeting with political office holders at the
Government’s House, Ado Ekiti, where he also inspected Osoko Political
Institute Centre, had also said that ““I have penchant for taking powers; that
one in Buhari’s hand.
I will take it. I’m going straight to that villa. I’m the
next president. “I want to be the next president of Nigeria. My own won’t be
this change that has brought nothing, we are going to represent the people well
and tell them the truth.” Recall also that Fayose had earlier set his words to action
in July when a Facebook page claimed to be one of his displayed his 2019
presidential campaign banner with the inscription, “Fayose for president
2019,”and a sub-slogan that read, “Strong, Reliable and Rugged.” The banner had
Fayose’s pictorial drawing, with a pair of glasses to match and a friendly
smile. It also had its major slogan reading, “Together, we can make Nigeria
work again.” However, today’s public unveiling at the PDP’s national convention
has further removed any doubt as to whether Oshokomole, as he is fondly
called, will wrestle presidential power
with President Muhammadu Buhari in 2019.
