GOVERNOR Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State Monday described pictures of the Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, General Muhammadu Buhari, rtd as phoney, designed to deceive Nigerians, just as he vowed to defend the contents in the video on Ekiti election.

Addressing Journalists Monday In Abuja, governor Fayose who dismissed the current picture of a purported interview in London of Buhari, stressed that it was not only a hoax, but a fabrication on the part of the APC.

According to Fayose,the picture was taken in suite 881 at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja contrary to claims that they emanated from an interview in London, adding, “the picture which was widely published in front page of the nation’s media, was taken I suite 881 at the Transcorp Hilton Hotel, Abuja.

The governor who insisted that Buhari was sick and not fit to rule the country, said that aspiring and incumbent leaders must be made to publish the current status of their health condition as pre-condition for aspiring to any public office because the office was not about the person, but the entire country.

He said, Buhari is on the sick bed at Cavendis Square, London. They should come out and say so. I am not wishing him dead but we have a duty to always speak the truth. The APC have been trying to cover it up by not allowing him travel out but the man knows he is sick and so, he decided to go for medical check.

“But my argument is that General Buhari is old, even to govern a state. Governing this country needs energy and strength. We don’t want a president that will be inside the house and other people will hijack that government from him and start governing Nigeria as if it is their personal property.

“They will need to educate the people to read between the lines. I am not against General Buhari, there must be a leader at a given time, but the fact remains that he is frail and not strong enough to run the affairs of this country.”

Establishing his points, the governor sat on the three-seat sofa which bears total similitude of the sofa in the suite as well as the painting on the wall of the room.

The table lamp and the cupboard also was a match to those of the picture leading to Fayose’s conclusion that the said interview with Kemi Fadojutimi in London was not true, but part of the APC propaganda that would lead to its failure in elections March 28.

Fayose who insisted that Buhari will not win the Presidential election, said the level of falsehood upon which the APC’s presidential candidate was being projected to Nigerians exposes what he described as the deceitful nature of the opposition.
