Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State on Monday lambasted the leaders of the ruling All Progressive Congress, describing them as “armed robbers”.

The governor, whose candidate was defeated at the recent Ekiti State gubernatorial elections, also dismissed reports linking with an unnamed APC leader.

He described the President Muhammadu Buhari administration as tyrannical, adding that he will continue to stand against him.

The governor further distanced himself from rumours that he is planning to defect to the APC, saying “those associating me with the APC can continue to celebrate their own political self-deceit”.

He said this in a tweet on Monday.

He said,

“Linking me with any APC leader is like saying that I’m associating with armed robbers who stole the mandate of Ekiti people. If it will remain one man that will continue to stand against the tyrannical government of Buhari and his APC, that one man will be Peter Ayodele Fayose.

I remain in PDP and those associating me with the APC can continue to celebrate their own political self deceit.
Together we must rescue Nigeria and its people from the APC tyrannical govt.
