Makinde will suffer for how he treated us & Fayose

Makinde and Fayose Makinde and Fayose

Former Governor of Ekiti State Ayo Fayose has said that Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State will face the same kind of treatment he meted to those who supported his political ambition.

Speaking at a gathering, Fayose stated that those who betray alliances should never be surprised when they become victims of the same treatment.

He said, "We warned Seyi Makinde long ago, but arrogance would not allow him to listen. Politics is built on loyalty, trust and mutual respect, not on the habit of using people and discarding them when they are no longer convenient.

"As he did to many who stood by him and helped build his political structure, so others will eventually do to him. What goes around truly comes around in politics.

"Those who betray alliances should never be surprised when they become victims of the same treatment. The seeds sown yesterday are the harvest of today.

"We warned him, but he chose a different path. Now, events are unfolding exactly as predicted."

This is not the first time Fayose has tackled Makinde publicly. Recently, he accused the governor of causing the kidnapping over 49 schoolchildren and their teachers in Oyo.

He had earlier exposed billions of naira received by the governor, which was meant to be given as compensation to victims of an explosion in Ibadan.
