Ace Journalist and pastor with a prominent church, Stanley Ajileye, has described the latest union between Hon James Abiodun Faleke and Kogi state Governor Yahaya Bello as a “marriage of incompatibles”.
Pastor Ajileye, an attested focused political activist, urged Faleke to look before he takes a leap in his political alignment towards November 16 gubernatorial election in Kogi State.
Ajileye, who was a strong pillar in the Audu/Faleke Media Team that cruised APC into victory in 2015, said the latest move of Faleke collapsing his political structure in the state, into the structure of Governor Yahaya Bello, is unpopular and it casts aspersions on the huge acceptability of the House of Representatives member.
According to him, it is more honourable for the Arole of Ekinrin Adde to remain silent and watch the people of Kogi who have suffered untold hardship in the last four years as they put their destinies in their hands to chart a new course for the state through an alternative party.
Pastor Ajileye said it is unfortunate that Faleke decided to take his white linen to the pig-swamp for a reason unfathomable in the hallย of reason.ย
He, however, punctured insinuation that Faleke was bribed by Governor Bello, insisting that Faleke can not be induced financially.ย
“Faleke is my brother, anyone that knows him well will agree with me that he can not fall for financial inducement from Governor Bello; the problem, I think, has to do with a desire to please some big people somewhere,” he said.
According to the clergy, who is also a strong member of PDP, “unfortunately, those interests Faleke is trying to protect have no consideration for the plight of our people in Kogi State.”
He said this is a time when the interest of the downtrodden people of Kogi State shout take precedence over personal interest.
Ajileye in his submission said this new alliance of Faleke has failed before take off, because “PDP will win this election by the grace of God who has patiently listened to the cry of Kogi people in the last four years.”
He therefore urged the people of Kogi State to support Engr. Musa Wada come November 16.
