Obasanjo is Nigeria's number one enemy, he is a cancer - Fayose

Press statement from the office of the Ekiti state
government below...
Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has
described former President Olusegun Obasanjo as the
number one enemy of Nigeria, saying; "he is a
confusionist who has lost his status as a statesman
and Nigerians should simply ignore him."
The governor, who expressed confidence that
President Goodluck Jonathan will be reelected to
complete his eight years term, added that; "Obasanjo
is only fighting President Jonathan because he
prevented him (Obasanjo) from ruling Nigeria from his
Ota Farm."
In a statement issued on Sunday by his Special Assistant
on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka,
Governor Fayose said "Obasanjo is a cancer that may never
get cured in a lifetime.
"The moment Obasanjo is not the one controlling a house,
he will want the house pulled down but this time around, he
has failed."
The governor said; "Obasanjo has always benefitted from
the misfortune of others and he is living with the impression
that he is the wisest person in the whole world.
"When Murtala Mohammed was murdered in 1976,
Obasanjo was the beneficiary.
"In 1993, he said the acclaimed winner of the June 12, 1993
presidential election, late Chief MKO Abiola was not the
Messiah Nigeria needed. Instead of Obasanjo to join the
clamour for the actualisation of Abiola's mandate, Obasanjo
was canvassing for an Interim National Government, which
he schemed to head.
"MKO Abiola died in detention in 1997 and Obasanjo
became the beneficiary of his (Abiola) death.
"Despite the fact that it was the blood of MKO Abiola that
Obasanjo matched on to power, not even a street was
named after Abiola throughout Obasanjo’s eight years as
president.
"Today, Obasanjo is fighting President Jonathan, the man
who has done what he failed to do for Abiola, the Yoruba
people and Nigerians as a whole when he was president for
eight years, simply because he does not want anyone to
equal his record as Nigeria's longest serving president.
"President Jonathan has made it impossible for Obasanjo
to run his presidency for him and for this reason, he is
supporting Buhari, hoping that he will be the one to
nominate ministers for Buhari if he becomes president.
"Abanije eniyan to nba eeyan je kiri, ojo to ba dekun ibaje
ni won maa ba oun naa je kanle ( He who destroys will
ultimately ends up in destruction).
"However, I have this bad news for Obasanjo. Nigeria is not
his football that he can kick around as he likes. President
Jonathan will be reelected, and Nigeria will be freed from
his (Obasanjo) bondage once and for all."
