Buhari’s Six Months Of Deceitful Change –Fayose

Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose has described the last six months of President Mohammadu Buhari's administration as that of "deceitful change," lamenting that the President was destroying the image of Nigeria and its people for cheap international recognition.Te governor, who also described the claim by the Minister of Finance, Mrs Kemi Adeosun that the ministry do not have details of any fund recovered from officials of the immediate past government of Dr Goodluck Jonathan as a vindication of his position that the President wasnot saying the truth, said Nigerians must ask the President where the so-called looted fund was paid and who made the payments.He said; "If the Ministry of Finance is not aware of any recovered fund, it is either those who purportedly made the refund did so by loading cash into Ghana-Must-Go bags and dropping the bags in the President's bedroom or the fund was lodged into the Central Bank without records.Speaking through his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, Governor Fayose said "the only areas President Buhari has recorded tremendous achievements are areas of political persecution, disobedience of court order and desperate bid to turn the country to a one-party state as evident in the Kogi State election, which the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), headed byBuhari's kinsman staged managed and muddledup."He said; "in the last six months, a section of the judiciary has been so openly manipulated by theBuhari's administration such that different judgments were given in similar cases, with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) getting negative judgments while the All Progressives Congress (APC) secured positive judgements in cases with similar facts and evidences."While sympathising with Nigerians, who were deceived to vote for the APC and are now bearing the brunt of the six months of Buhari's administration's cluelessness, Governor Fayose said; "It is painful that Nigerians are being made to suffer great hardships from fuel scarcity, thousands of people are still being killed in the North byBoko Haram, Chibok Girls are still not found, power supply has dropped, and above all; the unity of the country is being threatened as admitted by the Minister of Information, Lai Mohammed, yet all our President does is junketing around the globe."Speaking further, the governor said; "Honestly, this change promised by President Buhari and his party, APC is nothing other than 'one chance change' and this has been attested to even by highly respected international news media."For instance, Bloomberg, in a report two days ago said hopes have fizzled in Buhari's ability to turn around Nigeria and that money that flowedinto stocks and bonds in Nigeria, which McKinsey& Co. says could become one of the world's 20 biggest economies by 2030, is now fleeing as growth prospects diminish along with oil prices."Under President Buhari, the United States-based investment banking and financial servicesmultinational J P Morgan ejected Nigeria from its Government Bond Index for Emerging Markets (GBI-EM) with effect from the end of October this year."Under Buhari, the future of workers are being threatened by the APC government plot to reduce minimum wage and retrench workers."Under Buhari, oil subsidy is to be removed next year January, thereby causing further hardship for the people."Under President Buhari, multi-national companies are laying-off thousands of workers while contractors working for the Federal Government have left their sites.Yet, what the President does is to junket from one country to another to cast aspersion on Nigeria and its people and one wonders how foreign investors will come to a country that its President says is peopled by rogues."
