Governor Ayo Fayose of Ekiti State and his Rivers counterpart Nyesom Wike have both condemned the blockade of National Assembly by operatives of Department of State Services on Tuesday.
Condemining the act as shameful, Fayose wrote on Twitter: “Shameful display of tyranny at the NASS. At this point, we can only pray to God to save democracy in our country from the hands of these tyrants. But I warned! I warned those who brought Buhari in 2015 and I kept warning even after he was elected. #SaveOurDemocracy.”
On his part, the Governor of Rivers, Wike writing on Twitter said: “The assault on the National Assembly by security forces ordered by the APC Federal Government is condemnable and has the capacity to truncate the nation’s democracy.”
