Fayose justifies absence of Atiku at signing of peace accord

The former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose on Wednesday justified the absence of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar from the signing of peace accord ahead of 2019 Presidential election.

Atiku was absent at the signing of peace accord among the Presidential candidate for the 2019 election.

However, defending the absence of Atiku, Fayose said that since President Muhammadu Buhari was unable to sign the amended Electoral Bill is a signal that Buhari is not interested in peaceful conduct of the election.

Fayose said on his twitter handle, “A man who refused to sign the Amended Electoral Bill 4 times after it was passed by NASS of 469 Nigerians cannot be said to be interested in any peaceful, free and fair election.

“Therefore, the signing of Peace Accord won’t change his desperation to remain in office at all cost.”

“A man who has turned all FG agencies, especially EFCC and Police to the attack dogs of APC cannot be said to be interested in any peaceful election just by mere signing of peace accord.”
