2019: Fayose sets for Aso rock assignment.

GOVERNOR Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti state has declared his intention to contest in the 2019 presidential election.

Fayose disclosed this while addressing newsmen in Ado-Ekiti, the state capital recently. The two term governor who said he has penchant for taking powers; boasted that he would unseat the ruling APC in the forthcoming presidential election, describing it as a walkover.

“I have defeated two incumbent governors in two different attempts. So, defeating the All Progressives Congress in the coming presidential election would be a walkover.

“Many did not believe that I can come back as governor of Ekiti State after eight years. I don’t know how God did it. This time, I am going to the presidency. God is taking me there but I don’t know how. I have penchant for taking powers; that one in Buhari’s hand.

I would take it. I’m going straight to that Villa. I’m the next president. I want to be the next president of Nigeria. My own won’t be this change that has brought nothing. We are going to represent the people well and tell them the truth”, he assured.
