Ayo Fayose celebrated the loss in a video he shared on his social media page.
A former governor of Ekiti state, Ayodele Fayose has mocked the Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal after his anointed candidate lost in Saturday's election.
Fayose explained why he's happy that Tambuwal's candidate lost election bid.
He said:
Ladies and gentlemen my name is Ayo Fayose. You know me and I know you.
I am so excited tonight, celebrating the victory of the PDP and my friends in the APC. All of you who have won your elections, congratulations. We wish you very happy tenure.
But let me quickly say this. I am so excited particularly by the loss of Governor Tambuwal's candidate in Sokoto.
You see, when a man is treacherous there's a payback time. He betrayed the party in 2015, he ran back. He betrayed the Asiwaju he went to meet in APC. He betrayed Wike that sponsored him in 2019.
This is payback time and I appreciate the people of Sokoto for voting against Tambuwal. And I enjoin you again, vote against him in the rerun. . .the senatorial rerun. You see, you are wonderful people and God rules in the affairs of men.
It is time to pop champagne. Tambuwal is gone.
