Former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has disclosed that he turned down an appointment offer from President Bola Tinubu, stating that he prefers to focus on his private life after many years in politics and public service.
Fayose made the revelation on Wednesday during an interview on Channels Television’s programme, Politics Today.
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) stalwart explained that while he maintained a cordial relationship with President Tinubu, it did not mean that he had joined forces with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
“Have you seen me taking an appointment from the APC? Asiwaju asked me, ‘What would we give you?’ I said, ‘Nothing, sir.’ At 65, I’d rather be at home, being more responsible, doing other things that I need to do. I’ve served well. Two-time governor. I’ve done well. Tomorrow will hold itself,” Fayose stated.
