<\/p>\nFayose, who stated this through his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Idowu Adelusi, was reacting to a statement by the Anglican Bishop describing Fayose\u2019s tenure as a waste and non-beneficial to Ekiti people.<\/p>\n
Adelusi said only a cleric trying to justify the blatant rigging of the last Ekiti governorship election by the All Progressives Congress (APC) would describe the physical transformation of Ekiti State by the Fayose administration as a waste.<\/p>\n
His statement reads, \u201cEven the blind feels the good works of Fayose and perhaps Bishop Omotunde and the likes need to change their eye glasses to see well.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur fathers have a saying that it is disheartening when one hears a statement of gullibility from a place where one expects to hear the words of wisdom.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe records of the Fayose administration are there for all to see. It organised an Education Summit that led to great improvement in education in the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cEkiti came first back-to-back in NECO exams and we also did well in WAEC. These are public institutions and the records are there for Omotunde to peruse.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Fayose administration built the first flyover in the state and it passes besides Omotunde\u2019s church. One wonders if the bishop closes his eyes whenever he drives or passes through that place. If he does not, we pray that God opens his spiritual eyes.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Fayose government built a new high court complex, a new Governor\u2019s Office, a new Oja\u2019ba Market; dualised roads in Ise, Emure, Ikole, Omuo, Ijero, Efon, among others.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt also dualized the Ado-Ikere road, built many roads in Ado itself such as Petim- Afao Road and Dehead- Police Headquarters Road. May be the bishop does not pass through these roads!<\/p>\n
\u201cAccreditation for various courses in EKSU, School of Nursing, and College of Health Technology was pursued and achieved by the administration. We can go on and list many other achievements in agriculture, health, social welfare and other sectors.<\/p>\n
\u201cYearly, the Fayose administrstion recognised hard-working teachers and civil servants with car prizes and other gifts. Within four years, it was promotion galore for civil servants. Civil servants and teachers will not agree with the untenable and jaundiced position of Omotunde.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Ekiti people who Fayose served for almost eight years know that his time was a great blessing to them, which is why they call him the architect of modern Ekiti.<\/p>\n
\u201cBishop Omotunde should remove his priest\u2019s garment and mount the soap box if he is minded to be this politically partisan.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHe said Fayose\u2019s opposition to Buhari administration did not allow Ekiti to benefit anything from the centre.<\/p>\n
\u201cAssuming that was the case, it only confirmed President Muhammadu Buhari as an autocrat who must not be criticised, and not a democrat who should take criticisms in his stride.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe make bold to say that Ekiti under Fayose and PDP has witnessed more economic and physical development in the last four years when compared to neighbouring APC-controlled states which have openly venerated President Buhari as their god-father.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat has Ondo, Osun, Oyo, Ogun benefitted from the Federal Government? What has even Lagos, where the APC national leader comes from, benefitted?<\/p>\n
\u201cIn terms of peace and security, Ekiti under Fayose was peaceful; it was secured from herdsmen attacks, assassinations, and armed robbery opreations. These and politically-motivated killings have returned in full swing under Fayemi\/APC.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
