The Governor of Ekiti state, Ayo Fayose has taken a swipe at former President Olusegun Obasanjo calling him an expired politician who always goes to Aso-Rock to beg President Buhari for political favours.

He said “I was governor without a godfather. I was governor for three years but Obasanjo took me out.

Obasanjo is now an expired man today and I am still more than relevant. He is expired. He goes to Aso Rock every week to go and beg.

“How many times did Buhari visit him (Obasanjo) when he was President? Buhari did not go to Aso Rock throughout. He didn’t even go for Council of State meetings. What is Obasanjo looking for in the Villa? A man of 80! What is he looking for?

“He keeps writing to Presidents to nominate ministers for them. That was Goodluck Jonathan’s offence. Enough is enough.”

Fayose has also accused the All Progressives Congress (APC) of plotting to upturn his election.

The Ekiti state Governor said he is more politically relevant that former President Obasanjo.
