“I have penchant for taking powers;
that one in Buhari’s hand. I will take it. I’m going straight to that villa.

My own won’t be this change that has
brought nothing, we are going to represent the people well and tell them the
truth,” Fayose had said.

after Governor Ayodele Fayose reportedly declared his plans to contest the 2019
presidency, a former member of the House of Representatives, Bamidele Faparusi,
has told him to go learn from his performing colleagues in other states.
Faparusi begged Fayose to ensure he learns from other governors the best way to
boost his state’s revenue.
