Comedian, I Go Dye has reacted to pictures showing Governor Ayodele Fayose, wearing a neck-band after he was allegedly tear-gassed during a rally by the Peoples Democratic Party ahead of the Ekiti gubernatorial election.

Veteran Nigerian comedian, Francis Agoda, popularly known as I Go Dye, has taken to his Instagram page and criticised the Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose over the tear gas incident that happened on Wednesday at the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rally in Ekiti.

I Go Dye said that Fayose got a treatment he deserved because he was part of the corrupt system, adding that everyone, including governors and President Muhammadu Buhari would continue to face such situations “until we promote what is right in the country.”

He, however, condemned the act of the law enforcement agencies resorting to crude method to maintain law and order at the rally, describing it as an abuse of human rights.

“THIS EXPERIENCE TO YOU IT WILL SERVE AS A LESSON TO OTHERS POLITICIANS

When pensioners protested this is what they got, when we protest for fuel pump hike this is what we get, when we protest against bad leadership this is what we get, when we protest on power failure or increase of minimum wage this is what we get.

This experience to you and it will serve as a lesson to others, that they should join Nigerians when they face hardship and speak against it, because of corruption and the ills of the political class.

Please get up, this is just a small thing compared to the injustice and pains that corruption have caused in this country. Oga governor, you are still among those governor’s that short changed some of our youth’s destiny, even the president is not exempted from any of such consequences. until all of us use our respective positions to promote what is right, every citizen of this country can face this kind of situation.

However, I condemn this action because it violates the fundamental human right to liberty and I also use this medium to admonish the people of Ekiti State to remain peaceful as they chose who leads them on Saturday.

What happens to the boys on the street, can happen to anyone. speak up, because our present status doesn’t stop us from questioning our environment. Amb Francis #Ukaid Madact ambassador making a difference Against Corruption Today.”
