The Peoples Democratic Party Governors’ Forum (PDPGF) has strongly criticised former Ekiti State Governor Ayodele Fayose, describing him as a “subsisting liability” to Nigerian politics. This follows Fayose’s recent comments attacking Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde over his meeting with President Bola Tinubu. Governor Makinde had met President Tinubu behind closed doors at the Presidential Villa on January 22 to discuss national and state issues. Fayose, however, alleged that Makinde was accompanied by Plateau State Governor Caleb Mutfwang, suggesting Makinde was unwilling to face the President alone. The Forum added: “His attribution of partisan motives to Makinde’s meeting with the President portrays Tinubu as a desperate leader whose sole objective is consolidating power.
