Fayose says Trump's victory will bring 'real change' to Nigeria

Governor Ayodele Fayose has hailed the victory of the Republican Donald Trump in the United States presidential election, describing it as “the beginning of a real change in Nigeria.
Fayose said those who imposed the present
All Progressives Congress (APC) government headed by President Muhammadu Buhari on Nigerians just lost out.
“Now that Trump has won, it portends hope for Nigerians that the excesses of the President Muhammadu Buhari-led federal government will stop as the road has ended
for those who conspired to impose Buhari on Nigerians,”
The statement by his mdia aide, Lere Olayinka, quoted the governor as saying in Ado-Ekiti, the Ekiti state capital on Wednesday, November 9, that he believed that Trump would be able to tell President Buhari to respect rule of law and sit at home to solve the country’s economic problems instead of junketing around the world.
“Trump presidency symbolises different things to different people and nations. It symbolises God at work and a clear departure from the old order.
“It is also a turning point for Nigeria and Nigerians, particularly those controlling the federal government that must have to change their ways as their allies who imposed them on us just lost out.
The world ‘mourns’ as Trump
wins US presidential election
“Most importantly, President Barack Obama
got what he did to Dr Goodluck Jonathan. God
bless President-Elect Donald John Trump!”
The governor said, describing the conduct of the elections as a lesson for Nigerians.
Governor Fayose added: “The US elections started and ended seamlessly.”
Fayose noted that the country’s “electoral umpire never meddled; the military, police and SSS did not provide cover for ballot snatchers.
No printing of doggy result sheets. I think Prof Mahmood Yakubu and his INEC should learn from this for posterity.
“They should stop aiding unpopular politicians to rob the people of quality leadership.”
The governor said the election of Trump signals the hope of a possible defeat of the APC government foisted on Nigeria by
external influence.
“I prayed to God that if Trump will be the one to save us from this present state of hopelessness, God should give him victory.
“I prayed that God should let Trump win so that another change can begin in Nigeria. I am happy that God answered my prayers and gave
Trump a resounding victory.
“I am also happy that God has humbled those who conspired to impose the present APC government that has brought hunger, suffering, abuse of human rights and destruction of the Electoral system on Nigeria and its people.”
