He said: “It’s not been too easy, that is the truth for Nigerians, but I think that this government naturally, is given their best but their best still need to be upped,” Fayose said on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics.
“If you say they need time, people will begin to question to say, what time do they need? Yes, I agree that it has not been too easy for Nigerians, but I know that with little time things could get better; that is what I can say.”
Fayose also showered praises on Governor Biodun Oyebanji, acknowledging that he has done an excellent job in leading the state. Fayose expressed his admiration for Oyebanji
He said: “As at today I am a member of the PDP, the governor there is a member of the APC, but the meeting point is that I am a leader in Ekiti.
“Like I told you, it’s either we lie we die or we say the truth we die. Governor Oyebanji has done exceedingly well,” Fayose said.
“I don’t know the miracle that will defeat him except something changes between now and that election.
“Forget the party, let us be realistic – the PDP is in bad crisis in Ekiti too, anybody can come here and deny I don’t care.”
