The governor said the All Progressives Congress (APC) government has failed to impress Nigerians and has only succeeded in pauperising the nation by its cluelessness.

He added with the hunger and suffering unleashed on Nigerians by APC, the PDP stands to gain electorally ahead of 2019 if the party put its house in order.

Falling is not unusual, but remaining in the falling state is admittance of perpetual defeat, which the PDP must not submit itself to,” he said.

According to him, President Muhammadu Buhari has made the country to be more divided more than ever before.

He said the continuous closure of the party’s national secretariat was part of the deliberate efforts of the APC led federal government and its agents like the police and SSS to make Nigeria a one party state.

In response, Gbenga Daniel likened Fayose to the biblical Daniel, who believed in the rebuilding of the Macedonian wall, describing him as a “fearless, focused and courageous man, and a timely interventionist with a realisable mission.”

Meanwhile, the APC in Ondo state said Fayose lacks decorum to function as the chairman of the forum because of his recent actions.

The PDP has expressed confidence that the Ekiti state governor would perform on his new assignment with responsibility and candour.
