Ayo Fayose, governor of Ekiti state, says he is
an avid reader of the Bible — at night when all
his visitors have left him alone.
In an interview with Vanguard, Fayose said he
is far from perfect even though his belief in
God is unshakable. Fayose, a controversial personality, also
revelled in the privilege of having a “praying
mother and a giant in Christ as wife”.
“I cannot tell you that I am a perfectman, but I
believe in God. I am one man that counts my
blessings; name them one by one and thank God for what he has done in my life,” he said.
“When everybody leaves in the night, I read
the Bible and look for words that will carry me
the next hour. I had the privilege of being
raised in a Christian home and my
understanding of the Bible is deep. And as God will have it I have a praying mother and a
giant in Christas wife.”

The governor further explained the relevance
of his wife, Feyisetan, in the decision he makes
and the battles he fights.
He said his wife had already informed him that he would prevail in the investigation of the
Economic and Financial Crimes Commission
(EFC) into the source of funding for his
election.
“If my wife tells me that this will happen, it will
happen. If she tells me not to fight any battle, I don’t, and if she tells to go on, I do,” he said.
“She told me that nothing would come out of
the present battle they are waging against me,
and I strongly believe that because it is all
about envy.”
