I Regret Supporting Atiku In 2019 – Fayose

I never knew the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, was this devilish, says Isaac Fayose, sibling to former Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose.

The politician said on Friday that he regretted supporting the former Vice President in the 2019 presidential election.

Naija News understands that Fayose said this in a post on his social media page on Friday.

He alleged that the PDP presidential candidate and the cabals around the seat of power are making Nigerians suffer.

“With the way Atiku Abubakar and his goons in PDP in connivance with the wannabe cabals, are trying to wrestle power from the present government in a foul way, making the people suffer for what is not, I make bold to say that I regretted backing him in 2019, ever knew he’s this d*vilish,” Fayose wrote on Facebook.
