Minister of State for Works, Prince Adedayo Adeyeye, yesterday faulted a recent statement credited
to the national chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Chief
John Odigie-Oyegun, that the mandate given to the governor-elect of
Ekiti State, Mr Ayo Fayose was a stolen mandate.
Adeyeye rubbished the threat by the APC national
chairman that the party would form a parallel government should the
Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, rig the 2015 presidential election.
In a statement in Ado Ekiti
, the Minister said, “It amounts to hatred for Nigeria as a nation and
insult on Ekiti people for anyone to claim that the mandate freely given
to Ayodele Fayose by the people of Ekiti State in the June 21
governorship election was a stolen one.
”Nigerians must begin to take note of what the APC intends to do in
2015 because it will definitely lose the presidential and other
elections scandalously.
”By their attitude, any election they did not win is rigged.
