The senior special assistant to the president on media and publicity, Garba Shehu on Tuesday, May 30, faulted Fayose’s demand as misplaced.
Speaking on Channels Tv’s politics today, the presidential media aide said the governor’s statement was borne out of desperation for publicity.
Shehu said Fayose could do anything to be heard every other day.
“I’m sad that you are inviting me to speak on Governor Fayose. If you follow the Presidency, we don’t talk when he talks because he is desperate for publicity,” Shehu said.
“We have a constitution that governs the country and the constitution is very clear about how the country runs. This country has a tripod of authority in terms of distribution of political power.

“You have the parliament which is doing its own work, you have the judiciary which is running, you have the executive and we don’t have any problem with this so therefore if anybody has a problem with the constitution then they should go and change it,” he noted.
ZENITHBLOG.com recalls that Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti has called on President Muhammadu Buhari to resign from his position as the president of Nigeria if he has any integrity.
In a statement by Lere Olayinka who is his media aide, the governor was quoted as saying president Buhari’s ill health has prevented him from discharging his constitutional duties.
The governor also spoke about the Chibok girls’ saga which he described as an orchestrated plan that was used to blackmail former president, Goodluck Jonathan.
He said one day, the truth about it will be revealed to Nigerians.
