God is angry with Buhari; Buhari is incompetent, clueless – Fayose
Following the violence that characterized the re-run elections in Rivers State, Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti State has tongue-lashed President Mohammadu Buhari over his docility, saying God is angry with him.
According to the governor, the president superintended over elections that were remarkably bloody.
Speaking with Journalists in Abuja on Tuesday, Fayose chronicled the list of elections held under the present government, insisting that power belonged to God and should not be abused by any individual no matter how highly placed.
“I am telling you the truth. Power doesn’t come from anywhere. God rules in the affairs of men. Oppressing, bringing and cutting people down, taking their blood, God is angry.
“The way this government is taking people down, God is angry. God isn’t happy. Go to Rivers, they kill people. Go to Akwa Ibom, they kill people. Go to Bayelsa, they kill people, incarcerate innocent people.
“God is angry with Buhari. You can’t continue to take the blood of the innocent. Look at my predictions for the year 2016 for Nigeria, everything has come to pass.
“This is a different ball game. He that will take on me, he that will go against me must first of all defeat God. If these were the kind of violence that greeted Buhari’s election would he ever be president?
Speaking further on the likely impact of the just concluded expanded retreat of the National Economic Council, NEC in Abuja, Governor Fayose stated that the present economic situations in the country indicated that president Buhari lacked technical competence to solve the problem of the country.
Though he praised the idea, the governor however wondered if it would not end up as just a talk shop.
“We have had a lot of these things, we have been through such gatherings but at the end of the day, will it not be the same old rhetoric’s; same strategies?
“Is it a diversion or diversionary move to make Nigerians think you are working on the economy because a government that has actually come, which was elected precisely a year now doesn’t know what they are doing, they don’t know what they want, they don’t know why they got there, maybe they wanted power and not to put Nigeria on the part of prosperity?

“So it is a good Idea that we should talk about the economy of the country but I think the driver should know more than the passengers but they don’t know direction. They are now fishing. They are fishing for ideas to run Nigeria because they don’t know.
“Again with all due respect, people won’t like the way I am saying it right now but they have to come to terms with reality; you can’t grow more than your pastor. You can’t grow more than your MD under the same roof. The president himself has very little capacity. He is limited by age.
“He is limited by academic competence and he is limited by exposure. If you can’t grow more than your pastor what will you offer and everybody has to look up to the president. So with his family of APC, they ought to have had an economic team, economic master plan for Nigeria.
“We should ask the president why Nigerians are suffering under him more than ever before. Look at the electricity tariff; in most cases they will never get the supply of electricity maybe once a month they will get what we call estimated bills. The people are so disenchanted, the people are not happy.
“There was this international body that said findings show that Nigerians are unhappy than ever before. Something must be causing all that. If you look at the last 6 elections around the federation, APC isn’t winning and it shows people are saying ‘have we not miss road?
“The fact remains that when the disease catches up with you, you will not know until the thing is about terminating the life of the person concerned. If you look at the violence greeting our elections now it will amaze you, it will give you concern.
“Even the words of Jonathan; abuse him, say what you want to say but he promised there will be free and fair election and he delivered it.
“Nigerians don’t know party, they know their stomach, they know their business; they know their economy. Let’s look back and imagine that so many middle class businesses are gone. Look at me having a daughter abroad and somebody says my daughter can’t get maintenance money in dollars abroad anymore.
“Education of my children has come to a halt after building such a child to a level of year 3 in the university. This is an indicator of incompetence, a clueless administrator.
“Sometime a lot of agents in APC might have clues but the president doesn’t have clue, he has no clue. You see these things, people are afraid to say it”, he said.
