The Governor of Ekiti State, Ayodele Fayose while swearing in new state executives of the Road Transport Employers Association of Nigeria (RTEAN) yesterday in Ado Ekiti, disclosed to them that he was once a bus driver like them, and they need not get desperate to make it in life but be focused on what they are doing and they will scale through just like he did. Here's what Fayose who encouraged the transport workers said to them;
"Please, I want to commend you for contributing immensely to the development of the state's economy, but don't allow yourselves to be used by evil-doers. You can see that some kidnappers were paraded recently. Information from them revealed that they have been using some of your members.
"I was once a driver like you. I used the money I got from driving to sponsor myself for HND at Ibadan Polytechnic, but I did not get desperate. All I'm saying is that being a driver you can make it in life. You will become what you want to become in life with hard work. Don't join evil gang for you to get rich overnight, try and rise through the ladder like we did."
