Former Governor of Abia State,
Dr.Urji Uzor Kalu has berated the Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose over
uncomplimentary utterances against the personality of President Muhammadu
Buhari.
He urged Fayose to focus his
criticism on performance and not personality of the sitting President, adding
that he should redirect his energy on good governance than tackling health
related issues.
Kalu said this while delivering a
paper titled ‘Mainstreaming Igbo in Nigeria’, as guest speaker during the
inauguration of Igbo Support group for Governor Yahaya Bello in Lokoja.
The former Governor also blasted
Governor Fayose over a statement credited to him that he was deceiving the
Igbos by dumping the Peoples Democratic Party PDP for the All Progressive
Congress (APC).
Kalu, however, noted that Fayose
and him were still friends but that the Ekiti governor goofed to say that he
was deceiving Igbos for defecting to APC.
“Fayose should endeavour to show the people of Ekiti the essence of good governance rather than engaging himself on unnecessary criticism of Mr. President and others perceived as arch enemies”, he added.
The Abia born politician noted
that he once engaged ex President Olusegun Obasanjo while in office as
governor, adding that he criticized him on the issues of third term agenda and
road construction in the East.
“I have never attacked the personality of the former President Obasanjo like Fayose always drags the name of President Buhari to mud, particularly his health related issues”, he stated.
