Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, said no politician in the opposition rank can pose a challenge to President Bola Tinubu’s reelection bid except former Presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi.
Fayose declared this on Channels Television’s programme, Politics Today where he spoke on Wednesday.
“Tell me who would defeat APC? The only opposition that I know that is in Nigeria. I am not saying that will win Asiwaju. The only person that has traction is Obi.
“Despite not being in government, he is the only one talking and everywhere. I give it to him,” the ex-governor stated.
The chieftain of the crisis-ridden People’s Democratic Party, revealed that the President with whom he has yummy relationship offered him appointment in his administration but he declined, saying, “Have you seen me taking appointment from the APC? Asiwaju asked me, ‘What would we give you?’ I said, ‘Nothing, sir.’
“At 65, I’d rather be at home, being more responsible, doing other things that I need to do.
“I’ve served well. Two-time governor, I’ve done well. Tomorrow will hold itself.”
