Ayodele Fayose, Ekiti state Governor, who turned 57 years yesterday said that he wished President Muhammadu Buhari had called to congratulate him.
Fayose, who stated this while fielding questions from journalists at Government House, Ado-Ekiti on his birthday, said the President should show love even to those who are not his party members.
His words: “I have many wishes on my 57th birthday, but one of them, which will interest you is that I wish I had received President Buhari’s congratulatory call and that would have woken me up as one of the governors in this country.
“He should have done that as a father of the nation and as I am a leading opposition voice in the country.
“His call would have reassured me, as a fearless man who believes that things should be done rightly, to show himself as a father of all, preaching that we must extend love to everybody and not only to those in his political party.
On the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) congress, he expressed optimism that a credible candidate would emerge as the party chairman while members would end the convention as one party.
