INTERIM GOVT: THERE IS EVIDENCE AGAINST JONATHAN, SAYS FAYEMI

Former governor of Ekiti State, Dr Kayode Fayemi, today revealed that the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC), has what it termed strong evidence against presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and incumbent Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan, over his alleged plot to foist an interim government on Nigeria.

The former governor also stated that the allegation made by the opposition party's national leader, Bola Tinubu, that his life was being threatened is a confirmation of the desperation of the PDP  led Federal Government and President Jonathan.

Fayemi while speaking in  Aramoko Ekiti, equally lambasted the incumbent governor Ayodele Fayose over alleged lying against the
APC's Presidential Candidate, Muhamadu Buhari over his health status.

According to him, "We have heard somebody whose own definition of politics is about lying, saying Gen Buhari was taken to a hospital in London.

"Buhari never went to hospital throughout the 10 days he was in London because I was with him throughout.

"Fayose even used his mother as an example of how people who are old used to behave just because he wanted to drive home a point that Gen Buhari was sick.

"This is like disgracing his own mother in the public and it is against the value Ekiti is known for.

"President Jonathan is becoming desperate by the day and he would stop at nothing to return to government. You know what they did in Ekiti. So, there was nothing Tinubu said that was not verifiable.

"I have evidence that he was invited to be part of Interim Government as a way of dividing us as a prominent member of our party.

"There is absolutely nothing they cannot do to distract us because they could see that Presidency is gradually slipping off their hands.

"It was good that these alarms were being raised and put in the front burner that there was a sinister intention to subvert the will of the people.

"What Nigerians are looking for now is for the elections to be held on March 28 as scheduled by INEC and for the victor who was overwhelmingly elected by the popular votes to be announced.

"We as party leaders and members of opposition are ready to congratulate the winner, but if they go ahead and subvert the will of the people, they will surely go to jail."
