Ekiti state governor, Ayodele Fayose, has earned the public rebuke of the first family. It may have taken a while, but his comeuppance is finally here.

With a penchant for hurling invective on president Muhammadu Buhari at every opportunity, Fayose went one better on Monday, accusing the wife of the president, Aisha Buhari of international fraud.

The presidency never responds to a Fayose rant, but there was an exception today. That riposte from the nation’s number one address, you can read here.

Mrs Buhari didn’t need a formal press statement to excoriate the rambunctious governor. A tweet or two would do.

Enough is Enough Fayose. A mad dog that isn’t chained. I refuse to keep quiet.

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
FAYOSE IS AN UNCHAINED MAD DOG
If Buhari is 73 years old,I Aisha am 45 years old,I have more than enough energy to face you

“Enough is Enough Fayose. A mad dog that isn’t chained. I refuse to keep quiet,” tweeted the president’s wife.

A sitting governor doesn’t get called a mad dog in Nigeria very often, so we’ll be remembering this day for the rest of our blogging lives.

As you were….
