“Mark my word economic downturn will pull down Buhari’s government God is angry” - Fayose

The Ekiti state governor Fayose has said the poor state of the nation’s economy will continue throughout the tenure of President Muhammadu Buhari and will lead to the collapse of his government.

Some say Governor Ayo Fayose could be making some points but the fact that he has failed to manage his own state well makes it difficult for people to take his words seriously.

Talking tough, Governor Fayose said: “I am not a prophet of doom, but I must tell you the truth. It is this economic downturn that will pull down the Buhari-led government. Mark my word...

"The economy will improve, but it will be too late in the life of the Buhari-led government. God is angry with the Buhari-led government. It is shedding the blood of too many innocent people.

“Soldiers would enter the home of poor village people and gun them down in cold blood. There is too much of blood-shedding. Look at what they did to that innocent woman in Kano. I am telling you that God allowed them to get into government so that they would be exposed; so that everyone would see their inability and hypocrisy.”

He spoke during a thanksgiving service to mark the first anniversary of the Fifth Assembly of the Ekiti State House of Assembly at the Government House Chapel, Ado Ekiti, on Sunday.

APC said they are working to right the wrongs of PDP and Fayose and his likes would be put to shame.
