A Peoples Democratic Party youth organisation in Ekiti State under the umbrella of Ekiti PDP Youth League has described the award of Silverbird TV Man of the Year 2017 given to Governor Ayodele Fayose of Ekiti State as a "Cash and Carry" award which was purchased using millions of Naira belonging to the poor masses of Ekiti people.
In a release signed by the duo of Adekunle Agboola and Sunday Awe, the youth described Governor Fayose as not only 'unfit' for such a coveted award, but has not done anything impressively as a governor to justify his been accorded such an award going by his abysmal performance in all areas of human development over the last three years.
The youth however challenged the management of Silverbird Organisations to tell Ekiti people and indeed Nigerians what parameters were used to justify the award on Governor Ayodele Fayose.
"The award in itself is lack in integrity, the process was also frothy and ultrapadded going by the character of a person the award was given to. Evidence have also shown that Governor Ayodele Fayose purchased the award with a whopping sum of ₦15 millions belonging to the poor masses of Ekiti State."
"This is a man who has almost ran Ekiti State aground due to his unfriendly economic policies, wasteful spending and extravagant lifestyle. Should a man that is owing workers several months of unpaid salaries and pensions be considered for a man of the year award? Should a man who has not employed a single youth into the state civil service be considered for a man of the year award? Should a man who have shot down all the tertiary institutions in the state be considered for a man of the year award? Should a man who have chosen to be hostile and unfriendly to investor be considered for a man of the year award?"
"These and many more are questions for Silverbird Organisations to answer and even go forward to convince the good people of Ekiti State why Fayose deserved such an award.
"While we respect the independence of Silverbird TV as a respected media organisations who is at liberty to carry out her business the way it feels, it is also good for the management of the organisation to refrain from such ludicrous personality that can easily removed the love many Nigerians have for it over the years."
"As youth organisation within the PDP in Ekiti State, we are bold to say that the Silverbird Organisation has drag her reputations in the mud all in the name of looking for cheap money to run his media outfit from dubious character in the political arena of Ekiti State."
"May be we should conclude by helping Silverbird to say that Governor Fayose was considered for the award based on his boisterous tendencies against the personality of President Muhammadu Buhari and the recklessness at which he has govern Ekiti State over the last three years. We are saying that his political gangsterism eventually paid off by been awarded the coveted Silverbird Award Man of the year 2017. We hereby condemned the merits of the award with all the gusto and fancy accorded it."
