Imo State governor and chairman of the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), Owelle Rochas Okorocha, has accused Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayo Fayose, of heating up the polity.
Fayose had alleged that President Muhammadu Buhari has been on life support since June 6 at West End Hospital in London, United Kingdom.
Okorocha blasted him saying he was only engaging in “cheap talk” and “statement of hate.”
He accused Fayose of wishing the president dead, instead of praying for him and wishing him well.
“I want to advise that Fayose’s statement should not be regarded. It was baseless and there was no substance for that information. What he said was not right, it was uncalled for and that is simply heating up the polity”, he said to state house correspondents on Thursday.
“In our culture and tradition, we do not play politics with people’s lives and anybody can be sick, anybody can be in hospital and so, making such categorical statement, which is unfounded, that Mr. President is on life support, is, to the best of my knowledge, a statement of hate.
