Former Ekiti Governor, Ayodele Fayose has described as regrettable the comments ascribed to former President Olusegun Obasanjo over Senator Buruji Kashamu‘s death.

Obasanjo, had in a statement by his spokesman Kehinde Akinyemi, said Kashamu was able to manoeuvre laws and politics of the society on alleged crime in and outside of Nigeria but was not as lucky with death.

But reacting to the statement, Fayose, in his condolence message on Twitter, described Obasanjo’s statement as cowardly and regrettable.

According to him: “I also condemn the statement made by former President Obasanjo on his (Kashamu) death.

“It is regrettable that Obasanjo could say what he said about Buruji Kashamu after his death and when he can no longer question him. Why didn’t he say that when Kashamu was alive?”

He further asked if Obasanjo “can say in good conscience that he did not at some points collaborate with Kashamu and most of the things he (Kashamu) did politically were not with his collaboration?

“Nigerians will watch out for Obasanjo’s own end. He should stop forming saint because he is not.

“He should also remember that his own end will come too and nobody knows how the end will be.”
