These Politicians should please save us all these dramas. First it was Metuh, then Melaiye and now Fayose. Then there will now be Solidarity visits to Ekiti
I believe Ekiti people will read this political dramas. Very funning, so it is only Fayose in the whole government house? So no security in the Govt house? What has he done wrong for the police? Aje ke lana, Omo ku loni! Oh. let us all now make a Solidarity visits to Ekiti, so that we can watch Baba Sala. It is becoming interesting. However, our Police and forces should not be praised because they have not been doing enough in the area of protecting lifes as a result it is a clarion call for them to be more professional and trustworthy.
You are right is it only the Governor that was in the government house when the tear gas was thrown. Or the police police just aimed at the governor and threw it on to his face. If all these are negative than it may be that the smoke from the ministry of stomach infrastructure that were cooking for the poor the government house that affected the respiratory system of the governor.
Sign of desperation. Do you have to beat up the governor in order to silence everyone?
people deceiving people. We are wise, nobody can dino us again
