Ekiti Politics! There’s no way that a leopard can change his spots. Well, it’s most unexpected. It is curious, mysterious. In fact, I would say it is incredible because a guy that to the rest of us was doing excellently well was put to a very uncomfortable and inconvenienced situation of having to be reluctantly compelled to accept the votes that cost him his governorship. It’s mysterious, if you ask me because I thought whoever is doing well, the reward of good work or hard work is more work. But it seems that maybe there was some miscalculation by his party and so, I am on record as having said that the Ekiti people were faced with a choice between gold and lead and they chose lead instead of gold. And so, they should be prepared to live with that for the next four years. I said on television that they should stew in their juice because as you make your bed so shall you lie on it. Fayose is not an unknown quantity to many of us and so we believe that there’s no way that a leopard can change his spots. You see, we are going to have more of the same in the next four years. And I think in another six months or at most one year, the Ekiti people would be missing Governor Fayemi because this is highly cerebral, highly gifted and focused political leader.- Professor Akin Oyebode, former Vice Chancellor of Ekiti State University (formerly University of Ado Ekiti).
