I Am Contented With My Role As Governor And Chairman Of NGF – Fayemi

Ekiti State Governor, Dr. Kayode Fayemi has come out to debunk reports that say he is trying to take over from President Muhammadu Buhari in 2023.

In a recent statement by Segun Dipe, his Senior Special Assistant on Public Communications, Fayemi revealed that he is doing no such thing.

According to him, the rumors are untrue and he is only interested in what will happen in every part of Nigeria, and the unity of the nation.

He added that he enjoys his role as sitting governor and chairman of Nigeria Governors’ Forum and he will keep playing the roles to the best of his ability.

It read, “Fayemi is a sitting governor and he chairs the Nigeria Governors’ Forum. He enjoys these roles and he is playing them to the best of his ability.

“His objective is that of engaging in processes such as negotiation, mediation, conciliation, and arbitration in order to move a seemingly violent conflict into non-violent dialogue, where differences are settled through conflict transformation processes or through the work of representative political institutions.

“He is interested in what is happening in every part of the country and, like he himself once stated, anything that affects the peace of any state governed by a member of the NGF would surely affect the solidarity of the forum.

“People like Fayemi bring people together. You find them in all kinds of places and in all kinds of circumstances. They are very lovable people who wish the very best for other people. Despite that his action as a peacemaker and reconciliator means a lot to other people, the governor is a modest person and he is focused on other people’s happiness.

“As a bridge builder, Fayemi is never pushy; he just wants everyone around him to find peace and achieve happiness. The governor no doubt knows a lot of people and doesn’t fail to bring everybody together; he listens carefully and is sincerely interested in how everyone is doing.

“Like any other bridge-builder in the world, Fayemi likes to help to connect people, he is quick at recognising what someone else needs and his mind starts searching for ways to help the other person move ahead.”
