Forgiving Ambassador Taofeek Arapaja, who also hustled for the PDP South West Zonal Chairmanship, for abusing him during the election process, Fayose said it is all about politics. “Arapaja was a Deputy Governor and is not a small man, even if he has abused me so much, that is politics, if you emerge the Chairman, I will be the first person to visit you in Ibadan, because there is nothing that lasts forever. No one offends me and if I have offended anybody, I apologise. I and Makinde were one since the beginning, politicking leads to this misunderstanding, but notwithstanding, you are our father”, he said.
