Stomach infrastructure is a way of life says Ayo Fayose

The Governor of Ekiti State, Mr. Ayodele Fayose, has said he goes to beer parlour every Friday in order to enable him to get close to the common man in the state.

The governor spoke with journalists in Abuja on Thursday while defending the concept of what he described as “stomach infrastructure” introduced by his government.

He said it would be wrong to assume that stomach infrastructure means only sharing of food and money to the people.

Fayose defended his decision to go to beer parlours, saying that it would be wrong to equate governance with church or morality.

He said, “I also go to beer parlour on Friday to stay with the common men there. Governance is not church; it is about diverse characters and you must relate with them as such.

“Christmas is coming. Why do people go out of their ways to be shopping or doing other things if it is not just to make people merry?

“So, I’m grooming chicken, buying rice, yams, plantain, and the rest of them. I am sure if I give it to families during the festive period, they will be happy. So, stomach infrastructure is a way of life.” - NigerianEye
