Former Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose

Former  governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has renewed his antagonism with former President, Olusegun Obasanjo.

Obasanjo and Fayose, who have been in a long political fight, were said to have settled their differences recently.

Obasanjo was at his 65th birthday party in Lagos on Saturday, where he made some scathing remarks about Fayose’s abuses on his personality but said he had forgiven Fayose.

However, in a ‘Thank You’ text message to Obasanjo as contained in a statement yesterday, by the media aide to the former president, Kehinde Akinyemi, Fayose expressed anger over the remarks.

Part of the message read: “Dear Baba Obasanjo, I trust this meets you well.  I appreciate your coming to my birthday party, except for your very irresponsible comments at your age.

“You went so low but I am not surprised because someone once said you are supposed to be kept away in the zoo. Sincerely, that’s where you belong.

“I kept quiet or did not reply you at the function so that the world will know the difference between a sane and a mad man that you are.It is also obvious that you have also lost your sanity OR should I say is the heightened stage of dementia.Not to worry Baba., I shall set the records straight in due course of time.Lastly I shall appreciate if you return my money since you publicly admitted you received but Dangote brought u back.

“Your leopard will never change his skin”, the letter reads.

The former President replied tacitly: “Ayo, thanks for your “Thank You” message which undisguisedly revealed who and what you are, unchanged and unchangeable. Your money has been sent back through Foluso Adeagbo who brought it and in the same bag as he brought it unopened by me”.Obj.”
