Out-going governor of Ekiti state, Ayodele Fayose has thrown mud on President Muhammadu Buhari, who just arrived the country.
Buhari, who touched down at the Nnamdi Azikiwe international airport yesterday evening after a 10-day working vacation in London has been criticised by Fayose for how he was welcomed.
According to Fayose, Nigeria is the only country where ‘dancers are rented’ to welcome a president who travelled outside the country to ‘enjoy him’, at the expense of public funds.
The Ekiti governor further stated that late president, Musa Yar’adua didn’t go abroad for his vacations but spent them in Obudu cattle ranch. He berated the state of the country and asked his followers how Nigeria got to the sorry state it is today.
It is only in Nigeria that govt will pay dancers to welcome a President who left his country for fifteen days to enjoy himself abroad at the expense of public fund. Yar 'Adua didn't travel abroad for holidays, he went to Obudu in Cross Rivers. How did we get here?
