Former governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti has mocked Governor Amosun of Ogun on Twitter

Former Ekiti state governor, Ayodele Fayose has criticised the comments made by former President Olusegun Obasanjo following the passing of Senator Buruji Kashamu.

Chief Obasanjo was quoted to have said the late Kashamu avoided justice but could not escape death in his commiseration letter to Governor Dapo Abiodun of Ogun state.

“Senator Buruji Kashamu in his lifetime used the maneuver of law and politics to escape from facing justice on alleged criminal offence in Nigeria and outside Nigeria,” Obasanjo said.

“But no legal, political, cultural, social, or even medical maneuver could stop the cold hand of death when the Creator of all of us decides that the time is up.

In reaction to Obasanjo’s comment, Fayose said, “I commiserate with the family of Senator Buruji Kashamu for this irreparable loss and pray for the repose of his soul. The Almighty God will console those he left behind.

“I also condemn the statement made by former President Obasanjo on his (Kashamu) death.

He noted that, “It is regrettable that Obasanjo could say what he said about Buruji Kashamu after his death and when he can no longer question him. Why didn’t he say that when Kashamu was alive?

“Can Obasanjo say in good conscience that he did not at some point collaborate with Kashamu and most of the things he (Kashamu) did politically were not with his collaboration?

“Nigerians will watch out for Obasanjo’s own end. He should stop forming saint because he is not.  He should also remember that his own end will come too and nobody knows how the end will be.
