Obasanjo had on Tuesday while launching his latest book, “My Watch” in Nairobi, Kenya, endorsed Buhari as the right man to lead Nigeria as from May 29 this year.
But Buhari’s endorsement by Obasanjo did not go down well with Fayose who described the former president’s action as “political somersault.”
In a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Idowu Adelusi, Fayose called on Nigerians not to take Obasanjo serious, saying the former Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has lost his value as a good leader.
Fayose said the former president should not be taken serious “because of his antecedent as a man who has penchant for deceiving people for his own political gains.”
The governor said leaving “President Goodluck Jonathan to vote for Buhari is akin to abandoning the road and entering the bush.”
Fayose claimed that Obasanjo’s utterances of late including the latest endorsement of a candidate of an opposition party is not meant for the good of Nigerians but intended to plunge the country into another political crisis.
He alleged that Obasanjo opted for this political abracadbra because of his failure to secure life presidency through his third term agenda.
“Anything that comes out of the mouth and mind of Obasanjo is laced with senility which is dangerous for anybody to follow,” Fayose stated.
