Muhammadu Buhari

Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, erupted on Monday following a suspicious report that the government of President Muhammadu Buhari has allegedly made plans to prevent him and another governor from travelling abroad.

Mr. Fayose, who is Mr. Buhari’s critic in chief, said under the federal system of
government, State governors are not appendages of the President, and “as a leading opposition figure in Nigeria, he cannot be cowed by President Mohammadu Buhari and his agents”.

The governor said he was reacting to reports that two governors; one from the Southwest and another from the South South, have been placed on travel restriction on President Buhari’s order.

At a press conference addressed by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Mr. Lere Olayinka, said whenever he wished to travel out Nigeria, he will do so in the full glare of the public.

He said: “I am not surprised or disappointed by this latest plot of the Buhari’s government because the President Buhari that we know is a man without any atom of respect for the rights of Nigerians as enshrined in the 1999 Constitution of Nigeria, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights and this he demonstrated as a military dictator and now demonstrating as a democratically elected president.”

The governor said he was however amazed that “this dangerous dimension of compelling a sitting governor that enjoys Constitutional Immunity like the President to obtain clearance from the Director General of the Department of State Service (DSS) before travelling out of Nigeria can ever be contemplated.”

He said President Buhari and his agents should be mindful of the fact that under a federal system of government, the states and national government both enjoy some autonomy.
