fayoseThe Ekiti State Governor, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has described the resignation of British Labour Party leader, Ed Miliband and Liberal Democrats leader, Nick Clegg over their parties’ loss in the general election as a vindication of his call for the resignation of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) National Chairman, Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu.

The Governor said this on Friday, in a statement issued by his Special Assistant on Public Communications and New Media, Lere Olayinka.

Fayose said that he has no personal scores to settle with the PDP National Chairman, but insists that “It is morally wrong for the National Chairman to remain in office after leading the party into its first national electoral defeat.”

Three party leaders in Britain, including opposition Labour Party leader, Ed Miliband and Liberal Democrats leader, Nick Clegg had resigned after their parties lost in the Thursday general election.

Governor Fayose said; “Alhaji Mu’azu should be honourable enough to follow the same path as the British LP and Democrats leaders.

“Mu’azu’s case is even worse than that of the British party leaders, who resigned immediately their party lost because majority of PDP members no longer have confidence in his (Mu’azu) leadership and there is no way a willing leader can be forced on unwilling followers.”

Speaking further, the Governor said; “This is not about any personality and I am also not operating here on empty boast because Ekiti State was delivered to the PDP 100 percent.

“Rather, it is about issues. Imagine the PDP not getting up to five percent of the votes in Bauchi State, the National Chairman’s home state and someone is still not being honourable enough to resign.

“Haven’t we now seen what operates in saner societies with the resignation of the British LP and Democrat leaders? Shouldn’t our party National Chairman also take a cue from this and allow for fresh minds to steer the ship of the party at this difficult time?
