TVC E. Chairman of the Presidential Committee on Anti-Corruption, Professor Itse Sagay has said that Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose is on a journey to self-destruction.
Professor Sagay made the comment in reaction to Fayose’s letter to the Chinese government urging it not to grant Nigeria a loan.
Read his remarks, made during a recent interview with Vanguard, below:
But what do you have to say to what Governor Ayodele Fayose has done in writing to the Chinese government not to grant Nigeria any loan?
I think Fayose has a problem. The way I see it is that, the man who is on the brink of destruction has no restraint about what he does. To start with, what is the business of a state governor about a loan that is being given to the federal government?
Is it right for him to take such a step?
He has no business. In fact on the contrary, it is when a state government wants to take a loan, that it will require the federal government to guarantee the loan. So, he has no business at all and I regard him as being on a journey to self-destruction and I wish him luck. Let him continue to destroy himself with his mad impulses.
Fayose has also been criticized for pretending to give a speech in China when he was in fact only posing at a tourist centre.
