Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has thanked the Minister of Labour and Employment, Dr. Chris Ngige, for “campaigning” for him at the APC rally on Tuesday, in Ado Ekiti.
Speaking at the rally, the former Anambra State governor, in what obviously was a gaffe, likened governor Fayose of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to a good wife and urged the people to vote him instead of Kayode Fayemi who is the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Reacting to the blunder, Governor Ayodele Fayose, took to his official Twitter account and wrote: “I thank my good friend, Dr. Chris Ngige, for campaigning for me at the APC rally in Ado Ekiti yesterday. Dr. Ngige is a man who is not always afraid to say the truth and that is what he demonstrated yesterday even in the presence of the President and other APC leaders.”
Here is part of Ngige’s speech urging the crowd to vote Fayose instead of Fayemi:
Said Ngige in the video: “E go happen on Saturday? Those who want Saturday to happen raise your hands with your PVC and everything. Mr President, the leaders of our party, our people are ready, they are ready and on Saturday it will happen, especially those from the South West for the mistake they made in 2014, so, they won’t make that mistake again. If you marry two wives, you go know which one wey better.
Fayose is the better Wife, E de cook, E de give husband better food, E no de give am trouble, so you must bring back Fayose on Saturday.”
