A former governor of Ekiti State, Ayo Fayose, has said that the sudden penchant for criticism of President Bola Tinubu administration by Oyo State governor, Seyi Makinde, was as a result of rejection of the latter by the former.
Fayose, in a statement personally signed by him on Sunday, was reacting to a recent comment by Makinde against the handling of the newly passed tax laws by the Tinubu administration.
The former governor said Makinde’s decision to become the ‘spokesperson’ of the Opposition was allegedly a result of the cold reception he got from his last visit to Aso Rock.
“That Seyi Makinde’s derogatory comment against President Tinubu at Osinbajo’s birthday further confirmed that he got a cold shoulder from the President during his last visit to the Villa.
“Like I made public, in his attempt to do a damage control on his public speech against the President, Makinde met the shock of his political life when he visited Asiwaju last week.
“It is now obvious that after getting that cold shoulder from the President, Makinde must have realized that end of road has come in terms of reconciliation between him and the President. This is moreso that the Asiwaju made it clear that as far as Oyo State is concerned, he will support his party’s candidates in 2027.
“The emergency opposition mouthpiece Makinde is trying albeit unsuccessfully to turn himself to is an aftermath the response he got from the President last week, which I made public.
“Furthermore, it has vindicated me because if Makinde had gotten a soft-landing that he expected from the President, he (Makinde) wouldn’t have gone to make that statement, condemning the Government of President Tinubu, by calling the President a dictator while praising the Buhari’s administration.
“With this assurances too, the APC in Oyo State should now wake up and slug it out with Makinde’s candidate, which he will field under the ADC, knowing full well that PDP won’t be open for him to use,” Fayose stated.
