Gov. Ayo Fayose and Punch Newspaper under fire over controversial front-page advert about Buhari

A front-page advert by Ekiti Governor, Ayo Fayose has sent the nation reeling in outrage.

The ad shows Nigeria's past leaders (Abacha, Murtala Muhammed, Musa Yar'Adua...) and after that, the photograph of General Muhammadu Buhari with a question mark over his image.


Underneath is the caption "will you allow history to repeat itself?" and "Enough of state burials! Nigerians, Vote Wisely: Vote Goodluck Jonathan. Northern Presidency should wait until 2019."

This advert campaign is a thinly veiled attack on General Muhammadu Buhari's health, obviously.
