Learn From British LP,
Liberal Democrats Leaders’ and Resign Fayose Tells Mu’azu

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 party’s woeful performance in the
last Thursday’s general election as a
vindication of his call for the resignation
of the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP)
National Chairman, Alhaji Adamu Mu’azu.
The governor, who said in a statement
issued by his Special Assistant on Public
Communications and New Media, Lere
Olayinka, that he had no personal score to
settle with Mu’azu, added that “it is
morally wrong for the National Chairman
to remain in office after leading the party
into its first national electoral loss.”
Three party leaders in Britain, including
opposition Labour Party leader, Ed
Miliband and Liberal Democrats leader,
Nick Clegg resigned yesterday, after their
parties’ loss in the general election.
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 an unwilling
followers.”
The Governor added: “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
per cent. Rather, it is about issues.
Imagine the PDP not getting up to five per
cent 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 climes with the resignation of the
British LP and Democrats 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?
“Methinks leaders in this country should
learn from their counterparts in other
climes because like I said earlier, when a
war commander leads his troop to an
embarrassing defeat, such commander
does not need anyone to tell him that he
needs to leave the war front for another
commander to take over.”
