Former Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State says the powerful cabal in the Presidency is planning to give All Progressives Congress leader, Bola Tinubu, the ‘MKO Abiola’ treatment at the presidential primary of the APC. Fayose said this in an open letter to Tinubu on Monday which he personally signed. MKO Abiola was the acclaimed winner of the June 12, 1993, Presidential election but was denied victory after the result was controversially annulled. In his open letter, Fayose said it was obvious that Tinubu was swimming against the tide and he needed to proceed with extreme caution. The ex-governor added that the responses to the Abeokuta outburst by some of Tinubu’s allies in the North and the South were clearly something to worry about.
