Fayose threatens to release 11 damaging pictures on Buhari’s health
The Governor of Ekiti State, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, has
threatened to release 11 pictures which he said would proof to Nigerians that
President Muhammadu Buhari’s health had deteriorated.
Fayose
said there was no iota of truth in the claim by Acting President Yemi
Osinbajo that the President was fast recuperating in London.
The governor, who spoke with journalists in Abuja on Wednesday, insisted that
the President should resign and attend to his failing health.
“If care
is not taking, I will release pictures and this will create serious problems
for the country. The offices of the governors and the president are that which
require work. If care is not taken, I will release about 11 pictures (on his
bad health”), the governor said,
Fayose,
who is the Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party Governors’ Forum, however,
said he was not praying for the President to die.
He
challenged Osinbajo to show to Nigerians audio or still pictures taken with the
President in London when he met him on Tuesday night.
The
governor insisted that without the acting President showing either of these,
Nigerians should not take the message by Osinbajo as the truth.
He called
on the acting President to tell Nigerians what he saw when he visited Buhari.
He said,
“I’m not going to prove that to Nigerians. It is him (Osinbajo) who said he saw
the President that needs to prove to Nigerians.
“I have
made the allegations and I have said it expressly that we are in the age of
technology. So, we have an Acting President of a nation that has visited
his boss that cannot show evidence of the meeting.
“The
pictures they are posting on social media are pictures taken long time ago. You
recall that I said this again at Transcorp Hilton in 2015. We are talking about
the President of 170 million people.
“The
Acting President visiting the President that has left this country for about 60
days or more cannot show evidence of the meeting. It shows the President is in
a critical condition.
“I wasn’t
saying that we don’t want him to return, but the claim of the acting President
is not true. In this age and time when we have the social media, we have
everything to show that the government cannot be run by propaganda.
“The fact
is, the President is sick, incapacitated and he’s not in good condition. The
acting President should show us pictures, short video of his meeting with the
President . It is not in the interest of the country that the country will be
run in deceit and propaganda.
“The
visit (of Osinbajo) was diversionary and an attempt to divert the
attention of the country. Both the President and his vice do not have what it
takes to run the country.
“As far as
it is good to protect the interest of his boss, he should consider the interest
of the people. We are no longer credit worthy. We cannot wait for a President
that is incapacitated.”
