Despite promising Minister of Works, Power and Housing, Mr. Babatunde Fashola that he will tone down criticism of President Muhammadu Buhari, governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti state has come after the president again.
The governor, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr. Idowu Adelusi on Sunday stated that President Buhari has to allow the nation’s democracy to work else he would soon become like Emperor Jean Bedel Bokassa and Emperor Idi Amin Dada.
He said, "efforts by this administration to hand-cuff the National Assembly are a subtle plot to foist full-blown dictatorship on Nigerians.”
The statement reads: “It is a shame when the constitution of the country is violated by federal appointees and the Presidency keeps silent.
“It confirms that the Presidency is the one behind it. In the uniform saga involving the Comptroller-General of Customs, it is safe to say that the Presidency is in support of Hammed Ali against the National Assembly.
“It is scary that a whole Senate of the Federal Republic has to bow to an appointee who had needed the same Senate to confirm his appointment. In a democracy which thrives on separation of powers, this is tantamount to an invasion of the hallowed chambers of the legislature, in the same manner that we recently witnessed against the Judiciary.
“When the Presidency accepts and defends the arrogance of one man against the time-tested and practice-honoured intricate system of governance, then, the system as a whole has collapsed. It is even more dangerous that the courts have been dragged into this obvious plot to destroy the legislature just as we recently witnessed a similar plot against the Judiciary itself.
