A Group within the Peoples Democratic Party in Lagos State, Lagos Democrats, has called on former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, to limit what it described as his rantings and confusionist agenda to his home state, Ekiti.
In a release issued on Wednesday and signed by the Coordinator of the group, Tajudeen Abinuwaye, the group warned Fayose not to push his luck too far, noting that “Lagosians have a way of handling those who don’t respect their elders.”
The statement, titled, “Fayose: An Eccentric at Sunset”, said, “Fayose should limit his rantings and confusionist agenda to Ekiti. He should not push his luck too far. We respect our Elders in Lagos. We even rever them. While we will not roll in the mud with Fayose, we will always show him that Lagosians have a way of engaging those who don’t respect their elders.
“It appears to us that Mr Ayodele Fayose is becoming increasingly unstable. He seems to have reached some deep bend. This erratic no-gooder came to Lagos yesterday blabbing his mouth like someone with more than a screw loose.
“Like an ill-mannered, ill-born, uncouth outcast, Fayose dismissed all our elders and leading lights with the foulest of language and finally said they should be retired.”
The group claimed that Fayose was well known for what it called “his primitive, gangster-like, dirty and dubious politics.”
“But coming to Lagos from his native backwaters of Afao-Ekiti in a rough and tumble idiocy is taking insanity too far. We are equally disappointed with some elders who sat through Fayose’s obscene display and vacuous diatribes without chastising him,” it said.
The former governor had said on Wednesday that Lagos PDP would not be able to win any election if the former Deputy National Chairman, Bode George, was not retired.
