WAR Of Words! Fayose Fires Back At Kashamu Over His Emergence As PDP Govs Chairman

Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State has rubbished the Senator representing Ogun East Senatorial District, Prince Buruji Kashamu who said he (Fayose) was “immature” to lead the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Governors’ Forum.It will be recalled that Kashamu had on Friday condemned Fayose’s emergence as the party’s Governors Chairman.“It was a misnormer that the governors of an opposition party that is in need of rebranding and repositioning could chose a liability, a loud mouth and an immature politician like Fayose asthe Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum.“It is not that his emergence as the Chairman of the Forum means anything to me. But as a committed and loyal party man, it gives me great concern that instead of taking steps that will foster peace and unity, we are doing things that will widen the gap and cause more unity.“Those who chose him should have a rethink in the interest of the party that is striving hard to return to power. His brother-governor, Dr. Olusegun Mimiko, whose tenure he purportedly continued as Chairman of the PDP Governors’ Forum, is a cool-headed and balanced character,” Kashamu had said.Reacting to Kashamu’s statement, Fayose during an interview on Channels TV on Sunday night said: “Sen. Kashamu is just a Senator, when he comes up and becomes a Governor, he will learn how to talk like a Governor”.The Governor further spoke on Nigerian Airforce accidental discharge on IDPs camp. He maintained it was deliberate.“To them it was an accident but I think it was deliberate. The federal government and the military were the ones that created the IDPs camp and same them went and bombed it, it is quiet unfortunate and questionable,” he said during the interview.
