Frontline human rights group, One Love Foundation has warned Nigerians to avoid a former aviation minister and spokesperson of the All Progressives Congress, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode,FFK.
The Foundation, while speaking through its president, Chief (Dr) Patrick Osagie Eholor argued that FFK as he called, has zero integrity and cannot represent the interest of the Nigeria of our dreams.
Eholor further said no human being who goes back to his vomit like FFK can be trusted.
He enumerated instances where Fani-Kayode proved to be lack moral, political or nationalistic value.
Hear him “According to former Indian anti-colonial nationalist and president, Mahatma Gandhi, “Politics without principle, once described as a deadly sin.
We must do everything to strengthen the government. We must do everything to ensure that those who have stolen our common patrimony are brought to book.
One of such people is Femi Fani-Kayode (FFK).
FFK was reportedly accused openly by the then Governor Rotimi Amaechi of Rivers State. Amaechi said he stole N2 billion meant for the renovation of the Port Harcourt runway. The way things are done in this country is somehow. No wonder Adams Oshiomhole said that whenever you join the APC, your ‘sins’ will be forgiven. That’s what he told Senator Godswill Akpabio.
As we speak now, this same FFK has become a spokesperson for APC presidential campaign council. FFK is the one speaking for politicians who want to lead this country.
It is preposterous that FFK that has numerous charges of corruption against him, a man who should be locked up by the EFCC is a spokesperson! And all EFCC does is just to talk, brag, make noise, and chase yahoo boys around.
They have more responsibilities than chasing yahoo boys. Case should not be closed because he joined the ruling party, and that is just one of the numerous cases against him.
FFK openly insulted a journalist and said that journalists are hungry people who believe in brown envelopes.
I investigated that matter, and I searched for that journalist, found him and gave him the best award for his fearless nature.
These are things that need to be exposed and such men should be behind bars, because if you can’t do the time, then don’t think of the crime.
FFK put the lives of people at risk. People’s lives were put at risk and till date, nothing has still being done about it.
The Governor of Rivers State is just there making noise for almost eight years when he should have that man behind bars.
Femi Fani Kayode has been standing trial since December 2008 over a 47-count charge of money laundering, forgery, corruption and sundry issues.
One of the cases was how the sum of N1.5billion was fraudulently transferred from the Ministry of External Affairs account to Joint Trust Dimension Nigeria Limited account allegedly belonging to former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode. Another is a case of alleged N4.6bn fraud, then a case of forgery of medical documents in order to evade trial.
It’s a shame.
No wonder former President Obasanjo told Nigerians that once the Ife-born politician is fed, he sings and dances.
He joined the All Progressives Congress (APC) party last year, a party he spent the greater part of 6 years attacking.
FFK was the one who called APC a ‘party of darkness’. He joined the party that he had previously rechristened the ‘Almajiri Congress Party – ‘the party of darkness,’ while heaping all manner of insults on President Muhammadu Buhari whom he accused of killing some Nigerians through retroactive law. He called him a man with a pitiful and disgraceful record who looted the Petroleum Trust Fund (PTF). Such a man, Fani-Kayode proclaimed, must never become the president of Nigeria.
Hear FFK to Buhari: “You are not a human being but a beast. You are satan’s firstborn: an acolyte of the devil, a servant of the Baphomet, and a shieldbearer of Lucifer.
This same FFK licking the shoes of Tinubu today described him as ‘a bat from hell and the Asiwaju of blood’, while reacting to the Lekki toll gate killings.
These are his own words “Even if the whole country is cowed and mesmerised by Tinubu and applauds his callousness, vanity, subterfuge, deceit, ruthlessness, obsessive ambitions, lack of fear of God and doublespeak I FFK, the Voice of the Voiceless, the Servant of Truth, the Lover of God, the Beloved of the Lord, the Otunba of Jogaland, the Sadaukin Shinkafi, the Odum Agu and the Odugwu Eze will not.
On Tinubu’s ambition to be president, FFK has these to tell him “You dreamed of being Vice President in 2015 and you failed. You are dreaming of being President in 2023 and you will fail. In all your plans what you failed to appreciate is that God alone rules in the affairs of men. Tinubu refused to acknowledge or accept the fact that the Presidency of Nigeria can only be given by God and He gives it to whom He deems fit by prophecy and divine decree”.
What is it that FFK has not spoken with his mouth? He once wished Yusuf Buhari dead when he had a motor bike accident according to reports monitored in the news. To see the same man all dressed up and gallivanting among guests at Yusuf’s traditional wedding in Kano is only a revelation of his state of mind.
Umar Yakubu, of the Centre for Fiscal Transparency and Integrity Watch describes Femi Fani-Kayode in the following terms “an highly divisive figure who has been oscillating from regional to ethnic chauvinism, extreme bigotry to tribalism, to very opportunistic nationalism as a minister, irredentism of the most pernicious form, to insufferable rascality”.
Of a truth, FFK is a political baggage, a man who cannot even win his own ward.
Nigerians must avoid anyone or any party who has him as a part of his campaign. No good can come from such an odious union,” Eholor warned.
