EKITI GOV., AYO FAYOSE: “WHY I GO TO BEER PARLOURS EVERY FRIDAY”

The Ekiti State Governor, Mr. Ayodele Fayose has said he goes to beer parlour every Friday to enable him to get close to the common man in the state. Fayose made this disclosure while speaking with journalists in Abuja on Thursday as he defended the concept of what he described as “stomach infrastructure” introduced by his government.
In his words,“I also go to beer parlour on Friday to stay with the common men there. Governance is not church; it is about diverse characters and you must relate with them as such. Christmas is coming. Why do people go out of their ways to be shopping or doing other things if it is not just to make people merry? So, I’m grooming chicken, buying rice, yams, plantain, and the rest of them. I am sure if I give it to families during the festive period, they will be happy. So, stomach infrastructure is a way of life. So, my style without apology is that stomach infrastructure is a way of life for me, I will relate well with my people to alleviate poverty and hunger.”
