A former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, has again challenged the All Progressives Congress to explain its relationship with the dreaded Islamic sect, Boko Haram, saying the party was not able to controvert him, few months ago, when he accused it of sponsoring the sect.
While speaking with journalists in Osogbo, Osun State capital, after attending a campaign rally of the Peoples Democratic Party, on Tuesday, Fani-Kayode insisted that some members of the APC, particularly those from the North, were sponsoring the operations of Boko Haram.
He said, “The APC in the North is the political wing of Boko Haram in the northern part of Nigeria. This, I have said before and no one among them was bold enough to challenge me. I will continue to say it again and again. The northern elements in the APC have to explain to all Nigerians why some of their leaders in the North support, encourage and defend Boko Haram members.
“No member of the APC has been bold enough to controvert what I said about their relationship with the Boko Haram members in the North. I stand to be challenged if any of them has a contrary view.”
Fani-Kayode, who recently defected from the APC to the PDP, also said he had met with the people that matter in the PDP including President Goodluck Jonathan and they had assured him of an enabling stay in the ruling party.
He said he would work for the victory of the PDP in the forthcoming governorship election in Osun State and would also contribute to the victory of the party in the 2015 general elections.
He added that the PDP remained the only national party in the country.
When asked to comment on his meeting with President Jonathan, Fani-Kayode said, “I will not like to reveal what we discussed in the secret. It was a closed- door meeting and let us leave that for now.”
In his reaction to Fani-Kayode’s comments, the National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, told our correspondent that the party would rather spend its time on more productive ventures than respond to the former aviation minister’s allegations.
“We will not spend time again defending the obvious. We will rather spend our time on more productive ventures,” Mohammed said. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

FFK. knowing u, big-mouthed u. u would have told us the people involved. its obvious u r clueless.
ReplyDeleteWHY? But u will spend time if it were GEJ. Mtcheew
ReplyDeleteThis accusation is bold and serious enough even if it came from a mad man. People like me may take silence as a vindication of FFK's claim so if Laid Mohammed says they have more serious issues to deal with,then he,'s taking the populace for granted. The insurgency problem is as far as I'm concerned one of the most serious problems we're facing our existence today as a nation is the insurgency. Time has come when we the masses will show you polititians that you have fooled us enough. We still await plausible explanations in defense of this heavy accusation coming from an ex-APC member. Pls challenge him so he can prove to us he's not lying or we'll be left with no option but believe him.
ReplyDeleteFani, I have read most of your blogs, and can see that you speak with both ends of your mouth. You are just a POLITICAL PROSTITUTE. I have no love for both APC and PDP as they are only playing games with the minds of Nigerians. May God deliver us from all these evil men.
ReplyDeleteRevolution is what we need in Nigeria just like in Libya, Tunisia and Egypt
ReplyDeleteMr kayode is very serious with his accusation. Morever,the British parliamentary body is already investigating the party.Hope the US and other European nation follow suit si that we can know the truth
ReplyDeleteEven an insane psn listening to ffk wil no dat, ffk has no basis,anytime he is off to a party he accuses d oda one,so wot manner of man is he?Am sure u nid a psychotherapist to help u out.
ReplyDeleteIdiot FFK
ReplyDeleteFellow Nigerians, we must keep praying to Almighty Allah to save us from traitors like of political prostitute (Chief Femi Fani-Kayode). Unless he is working as CID for PDP, his in and out and in the two strong parties in the country must be seriously questioned.
ReplyDeletePDP and APC must be careful of traitors like this man in our society. Is he not the same man EFCC was dragging around some years back? What good things this man has for himself not to of the country?.
It is only in Nigeria where corrupt and hypocrite get title of (chief) Femi Fani-Kayode.
Christopher Abara, nobody has time for a madman. The FG knows very well who are boko haram. It has nothing to do with APC. Because the ruling party cannot cub the menace and APC is using it against them that is why PDP too return the insult. PDP is still northern party which if they denounce today becomes dead. We still have APC as well in the south. This insurgency is trans-African supported and financed by the west for their selfish economic interest. The killings and the wanton destruction going on in the north today is far beyond just because of presidency. In the first place the north has the weapon of democracy as far as it remain game of number. They dont even need coalation group like NADECO for power shift talk less of killing themselves. FKK is nobody and therefore doesnt worth northerners attention. He is just another letrate Asari Dokubo
ReplyDeleteAbara it's unfortunate that you are still among the few who still take this idiot serious.do not be gullible and fall into his trap. He is having EFCC breathing down his neck for serious corruption charges so the smartest way to get his freedom is to join PDP and attack the opposition so that GEJ will give instruction to EFCC to let him be. FFK does not deserve any answer. He is a Political Whore! (You do not engage a PIG in a mud fight.... or argue with a madman in the public...) Silence is the best answer for a fool.
ReplyDeleteIt means ffk was boko haram when he was in apc.a theif,greedy and political prostitute
ReplyDeleteYes l agree wit some idiots dat said ffk is a political prosttitute, traitor nd so on, but if apc does not come out for defence in this heavy nd ear-itching allegation by ffk, We nigerians will be left wit no option than believe wht ffk said. There's nothing like apc has no time for somebdy like ffk nd lf may ask, if apc has no time for peace, unity, progress nd security challenges of the nation, what would they have hastime for. Ffk claims demands an answer, dats all.
