Fayose to Falana: Stop playing God Ekiti State Governor-Elect, Mr Ayo Fayose, has advised Lagos-based lawyer, Mr Femi Falana (SAN) to stop playing God in the lives of the people of the state. In a statement in Ado-Ekiti on Thursday by his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Idowu Adelusi, he said it was wrong and a sacrilege for Falana to feel he could decide what the future of the Ekiti people would be.
He was reacting to a news item by Falana that Fayose had nothing good in him to offer
the people of the state and that the people should stop celebrating Fayose’s victory in last Saturday’s election.“We thought Falana is a lawyer, we never knew he had turned a mind reader and could predict what people would do in months and years to come. “If he was good at that, why didn’t he use his supernatural powers to predict to his sponsors how the election would go. “Once again Falana has shown the double-speak in him.

The people of the state he is trying to rubbish for usingtheir discretion are wiser than him and they know that Fayose is a man of the people and that he has their interest at heart,” Adelusi said. He advised Falana to stop playing to the gallery and stop pretending being on the side of the people. Where was he when Ayo Jeje, Rebecca Adewumi were killed in Erijiyan-Ekiti on March 31, 2013 and Foluso Ogundare killed in Emure-Ekiti on November 3 last year. He did not have anything to say because his friends were the culprits,” he added. On the claim by Falana that Fayose had no programme to implement when he gets to office, Adelusi urged Falana to wait and see what God would positively use Fayose to do for the people of the state. “By God’s grace, we are coming to lift the state higher and move it forward.
