Gov. Fayose's Birthday Interview.....Insists no advert or waste of public funds

Read Mr. Governor's remarks on his birthday uncut...

Q: Sir, Today is supposed to be a special day, your birthday, why are you in the office?

Ans: Yes, today is my birthday, and a special day but at the same time you can't shun or ignore your responsibilities. I have a lot on my plate, I have important issues I have to address, in the last two-three days, I have been listening to the ministries and taking briefs from them and it is going to be like that today,tomorrow and the whole of next week.

So it is the part of the sacrifice I have to make as a leader to make sure I catch up with time...in view of the fact that the year is running out, I have to make the budget, I have to listen to most of these ministries to know where the problems are, and apart from that, this is me, I believe in hard work. Birthday is good, this day is like every other day in our lives and we have to do what we have to do.

Secondly, I want to appeal to people especially all the ministries,government offices,government establishments not to do paid adverts with public funds for me.

At press time, she has 25 million Twitter followers, about a million less than Oprah Winfrey and nearly 5 million more than CNN Breaking News. Her Instagram account, where she is a prolific purveyor of selfies, is the site's third most popular. You can't walk through a supermarket without glimpsing her on a multitude of tabloids whose headlines holler about her relationships, her parenting style and the vicissitudes of her ample curves. But she has also graced the covers of highbrow fashion bibles like W and Vogue; with her now-husband, Kanye West, she appeared on the latter above the hashtag #worldsmosttalkedaboutcouple, creating a furor that made it perhaps the #worldsmostcontroversialcover.
