'There was no protest against Buhari' - Fayose faults August 1 movement

A former governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has faulted the planned August 1 protest against President Bola Tinubu's administration.

Fayose said there was no protest against the administration of former President Muhammadu Buhari, hence the organizers of the August 1 protest have sinister motives.

He spoke while featuring on Channels Television's Politics Today programme on Monday.

According to Fayose: "Hunger didn't start one day. This hunger started a long time ago. That was why they had a rally at a time and said: 'Jonathan must go'. (President Goodluck) Jonathan left.

"That hunger did not stop. Buhari came. I spoke to power. Buhari spent eight years, nobody said anything. I didn't remember any rally.

"There is no government that is 100%.

"Nigeria is a very difficult country to govern. We all know that. If a man is to spend four years, give him a mid-term.

"The little they cannot be sufficient right now for anybody to say we must bring down the government. Because there must be a motive."
