President Goodluck Jonathan on Tuesday met behind closed doors with a former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Fani-Kayode, who is one of the major critics of the Jonathan administration, attended the meeting which was held inside the President’s office with an unidentified man.
He, however, told state house correspondents at the end of the meeting that lasted about an hour, that there was nothing unusual in his visit to the President, saying he was delighted he did so.
“This is a Presidential Villa, the President is a President of Nigeria and every single person in this country that is a Nigerian is entitled to come here from time to time, when the doors are open to come and pay their respect to the wonderful people that are here. As a Nigerian, I have done that today and I am delighted to be here,” he said.
On his previous criticism of the President and his government, Fani-Kayode said the most important thing was for people with different positions on issues to resolve their differences and come together to move the country forward.
He said every right thinking and responsible Nigerian should be able to visit the President from time to time and help to move the nation forward.
He, however, declined to give details of what he discussed with the President during the meeting.
The former minister also said he would make his decision on whether to leave the All Progressives Congress or not known to Nigerians at the appropriate time.
He said, “The step that I will take will be made known to Nigerians at the right time.
“The most important thing and I think you are fully aware of this is that I cannot and I will not be associated with a situation whereby any group of people is promoting a religion above another.
“I think all of us have gone past the stage of religious politics in this country. We must treat the Muslim community with utmost respect and we must treat the Christian community in the same way and even the non-religious.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

ReplyDeleteDon't u know before!
DeleteFunny man....."when the doors are open to come and pay their respect to the wonderful people that are here." People you criticize are now wonderful people? You've got what you have always wanted, now lets get some peace from you.
ReplyDeleteMr Fani-Kayode has confirmed our suspicion all along! This man is totally selfish, sliding with the wind of his own personal interests when it sooths him
ReplyDeleteSo this was how you would have triggered hatred and enimity between friends of yoruba and Igbo extraction? Fellow Nigerians, be discerning! Examine all that these people do and find out that the masses are not in their heart!
Ohh my God,FFK!! Are u thinking of returning to the PDP??
ReplyDeleteFor his own share. Nonsense!
ReplyDeleteHis chorus is now changing. I knew what was making him blow hot was hunger.
ReplyDeleteExpect more surprises from this gold digger soon. All of a sudden, the people in the presidential villa are wonderful people.
ffk u b otondo.
ReplyDeleteBEWARE APC
ReplyDeleteI pity all of u Nigerians and the way you are following this politicians. They cajole u,use you,disabuse you and dump you all for their own selfish interest. Nigerians be Wise!
ReplyDeletePolitical prostitute,anyway nigerians are getting your strategies of using religion a step towards your ambition
ReplyDeleteI keep on wondering what fortune or political weight is FFK bringing to APC. Is it his base in Ile Ife that he will now win over to the party or the bags of money he will deposit with the party? In any case, who can save him from the case he has with EFCC? He should ask Lamido, the governor, whose children are arraigned by EFCC for money laundering. By now, if his wishes were horses, he will be one of the governors of APC. We are keeping our fingers crossed. Meanwhile, Fayose is PDP gubernatorial candidate for Ekiti while Omisore is for Osun. These are all wonderful people that should rule the South West.
ReplyDeleteffk! your intention for joining apc is to cause disharmony n break d party with fake propaganda of muslim-Muslim candidate. you are a worthless rag with zero level of integrity. apc shd beware of you .
ReplyDeleteFfk it is wonderful to note that you have realized your mistakes and gone to see the president.it is better to talk it over in the office than in the front of newspaper.takes note
ReplyDeleteFFK is a shameless opportunist with no scruples. Now he knows how to beg for forgiveness and political appointment. Perhaps he no longer has money to pay his lawyers to defend him over his embezzlement charge, this man is worthless.
ReplyDeleteFFK is a political prostitute jumping from one party to another, I believe the remaining of them will soon join him to the larger family
ReplyDeleteFFK!!! Nigerian knows your tricks,so don't fool your self in the name of fooling Nigerian but that your usual attitude will have great repercussion bet it with me today.
ReplyDeleteU guyz should allow the APC to defend themselves. I think FFK is right.
