Fayemi Opens Up On ‘Malicious’ Statement Against Tinubu

The Minister of Solid Minerals and Steel Development, Kayode Fayemi has denied media report (not Greennews.ng) that he said National Leader of the All Progressvie Congress (APC) Bola Tinubu was responsible for his own misfortunes.

The former Governor of Ekiti State in a statement by his special assistant on media, Olayinka Oyebode on Sunsay statated that he would never disrespect Tinubu, adding that he would always hold Asiwaju in ‘high esteem’.

The statement reads: “Dr. Fayemi subscribes to the highest moral and ethical standard of the Yoruba and as such would not speak evil or seek to demean Asiwaju Tinubu or any of our respected leaders under no circumstance whatsoever.

“For the avoidance of doubt, Dr. Fayemi has always held and will continue to hold Asiwaju Tinubu in high esteem. The bond that exists between them dates back to decades of cordial relationship and no peddler of falsehood or group of blackmailers hiding under the guise of politics can put asunder.

“The highly mischievous and malicious report is nothing but a tissue of lies. It must be stressed that Dr. Kayode Fayemi never granted any interview where he made disparaging comments about the person of our highly revered leader Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.”
