The rice eaters should know that they are eating their tomorrow, today.
ReplyDeletePeople should please collect the rice and eat because that may be the last dividend of democracy when the guy finally become governor as we all see that PDP is clearly written on the bag, whether we like it or not PDP has spoken.
ReplyDeleteIt is a normal scenerio. He is loved by the people. If hated,you wouldn't have seen people there. My sitting governor and wife once served cooked rice to the electorate. So,there is no crime in the act.
ReplyDeleteWhn Fayose is sharing rice now, he wl definitely take times 1000 of what he spent on rice from Ekiti if voted. That is to tell you pple collecting rice that u are collecting yr children's better future frm Fayose. Be wise my pple.
ReplyDeleteI can bet dat he will nt win
ReplyDeleteMy people perish for small pot of pottage. God please help! For how long?

ReplyDeleteMost of you condeming this if u context for a post and u want people to vote for u u wl not make any move u wl just cross ur hands with ur leg u wl fail galantly
ReplyDeleteNews had it that both APC and PDP candidates were sharing rice. Why show the picture of only one?
ReplyDeletePlease take the rice and tech him a lesson by not voting pdp. Is it not our money he stole he use to buy them . Maybe work we need nobi rice
ReplyDeleteDon't eat ur future now,a bag of rice could be a trap.Vote wisely n safe ur future
ReplyDeleteWhether you share rice or you share money, all are the same. Is part of the campaign stratage. Who will work will work. Some body said here that the sitting governor once shared cook rice. What did you people say about that. Ayo is love by his people so he will win.
ReplyDeleteDo not sell your vote for just 6 dericas of rice. Vote wisely. The rice wont last you for 1 week. Stop eating your future.
ReplyDeleteWhy do we keep showing our desperation. How many spaghetti did Obama distribute before he was elected?
ReplyDeleteFayose is a cheerful giver. God bless u
ReplyDeleteMy advice: collect the bag of rice but vote wisely. Vote for the person your heart desires and not be influenced by the gifts u were given by any of these politicians.
ReplyDeleteIs rice part of amenity? I can't understand this type of gift from a whole Governorship aspirant.To hell with his rice what did he do during his regime then? only killing of innocents,abuse of traditional fathers and so on.I think people should be wise now.
ReplyDeleteAll I have to say to such an action is simply premature attitude. Its not necessary, if u believe u are loved by ur people, u only need to convince them u can do it again or u can do it better through your campaigns. And to the electorates vote wisely, u future lies in ur vote. Thank you for the change of mind.
ReplyDeleteFayose rice is a gift in good faith. People are in support of Fayose, the rice is taken with joy without any negative interpretation. On Saturday, June 21 you will know that APC is gone in Ekiti State.
ReplyDeleteWhatever interpretation you give to it negatively, na u sabi.
This is not news in nigeria even the sitting governor is sharing rice and money as well, if you want to read our true comment show pictures of both sitting governor and aspirant governor distributing rice. Media wings of APC I see u.
ReplyDeleteYou guyz supporting rice sharing are part of Nigeria problems, because all these frivolous generosity from a governor to be, will only contribute in making his campaign so expensive. After. Succeeding as a governor, who on earth will not want to offsets his expenses. All these amounts to corrupt office holders. To me, Nigerian electorates contributed more to the problems we are facing. Common sense has it, if we stop expecting and demanding much from these guyz during campaign they will spend less to get into office thus, they may be no need for godfathers in order to sponsor campaigns. So if you think you are playing wise to demand from these guyz b/4 voting or collecting and voting for someone else, just be aware dat you are one of the numerous problems of Nigeria. Law of KAMA will always take it course. Peace prevail!
