The Facebook post that announced Fayose's intention to run for president

According to Channels TV, the governor's representatives confirmed that he would be running for the seat when the time comes.


Governor Ayodele Fayose has never made it a secret that he has ambitions of ruling the country.
While speaking in Ado Ekiti last month, he had said, "I have penchant for taking powers; that one in Buhari’s hand. I will take it. I’m going straight to that villa. I’m the next president.

"I want to be the next president of Nigeria. My own won’t be this change that has brought nothing, we are going to represent the people well and tell them the truth."

He has been very critical of President Muhammadu Buhari's governance and openly antagonised the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

Pulse called the governor's Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka, for comments but he didn't answer the calls.


A text message has also gone unreplied at the time of filing the story.


Convince yourself that you can be great without knowing anything about greatness. Truly believe that you are only valuable just as what you own.

I would rather play ball or any other sport in the rain than join a voting queue! In the ongoing Local Government Elections in Lagos State, it was seen that most part of the state engaged them selves in sport activities instead of queuing up to cast their vote as expected. To these ones, politicians comes with big megaphones making promises of a brighter future etc but the truth is they generally perceived as bunch of greedy individuals who seek governmental power in a bid to enrich their pockets rather than exercise the power positively for the development of the country.
