Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has blasted clerics
who predicted that he would be impeached or removed, less than a year after
assuming office.In 2014 after his swearing-in, two notable clerics from
Ibadan and Akure, predicted that Fayose would not last 12 months in office.They claimed the Governor would suffer the same fate that
befell him in 2006 during his first tenure.
Fayose has gone on to weather the storms of legal and
political battles and said he was God’s project. He was speaking during the annual Christmas Carol Service at
the Government House Grounds on Sunday.According to a statement by the Governor’s Chief Press
Secretary, Mr Idowu Adelusi, the Governor had declared that: “God knows
everything and for Ekiti and her people, we are going forward and with God all
things are possible.
“In January this year, a cleric said I would be removed in
2016 and I am still here by God’s grace. On April 22, 2015, somebody said
myself and Governor Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo State would be removed from office,
but am still here. “My enemies can’t change my destiny. I am God’s project and
all that he plans for my life will come to pass, no matter how bitter some
people feel. Anybody with a negative prophecy against me and this state will
fail. We won’t lose any battle in Ekiti. God is bound by His words and will
accomplish them.”Governor Fayose also urged Ekiti people to remain positive
minded and expect a better future.
