Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose, has blasted clerics who predicted that he would be impeached or removed, less than a year after assuming office.
In 2014 after his swearing-in, two notable clerics from Ibadan and Akure, predicted that Fayose would not last 12 months in office.
They claimed the Governor would suffer the same fate that befell him in 2006 during his first tenure.
Fayose has gone on to weather the storms of legal and political battles and said he was God’s project.
He was speaking during the annual Christmas Carol Service at the Government House Grounds on Sunday.
According to a statement by the Governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Mr Idowu Adelusi, the Governor had declared that: “God knows everything and for Ekiti and her people, we are going forward and with God all things are possible.
“In January this year, a cleric said I would be removed in 2016 and I am still here by God’s grace. On April 22, 2015, somebody said myself and Governor Olusegun Mimiko of Ondo State would be removed from office, but am still here.
“My enemies can’t change my destiny. I am God’s project and all that he plans for my life will come to pass, no matter how bitter some people feel.
Anybody with a negative prophecy against me and this state will fail. We won’t lose any battle in Ekiti. God is bound by His words and will accomplish them.”
Governor Fayose also urged Ekiti people to remain positive minded and expect a better future.
