Fayose warned Tinubu that failing to withdraw will be putting himself to be ridiculed like Awolowo and Abiola.

Ayo continued, “they are equally preparing for your actions and reactions and are fully set to contain same as they did to both Awolowo and Abiola.

 

“Unfortunately, your kingdom has been badly balkanised if what happened in Abeokuta is anything to go by.”

 

Fayose, PDP Chieftain, added, “for reasons of not being misrepresented, I will like to stop here and allow you to take your decisions, good or bad as a wise full-grown adult whom you are.

 

“The book of Proverbs 22 verse 3 reads, ‘Sensible people will see trouble coming and avoid it but unthinking people will walk into it’.”
