Former Nigerian Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has expressed concern over the ongoing crisis in Gaza.
In a recent interview with the Palestinian Broadcasting
Corporation, Fani-Kayode described the war as a “genocide” perpetrated by the
Zionist state against Palestinians.
He accused Israel of committing atrocities against
Palestinian children, women and men, using advanced weaponry with impunity.
“This is not just a recent issue but a long-standing
tragedy,” Fani-Kayode asserted. “What has unfolded over the past 11 months is a
stark revelation of the Zionist state’s barbarity. Thousands of innocent
Palestinians are being slaughtered while the so-called civilized world remains
passive.”
He criticized Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and
other key figures, labeling them as perpetrators of evil and likening them to
historical tyrants.
Fani-Kayode argued that Netanyahu’s administration seeks to
continue the occupation and expand its territory, with little regard for human
life or international condemnation.
Despite the grim situation, Fani-Kayode praised the
resilience of the Palestinian people, noting their unwavering spirit in the
face of prolonged adversity.
He suggested that the international community should rally
more robustly in support of Palestinians, drawing parallels with past struggles
against oppression, such as the fight against apartheid in South Africa and
slavery in America.
The former minister also spoke about the possibility of
armed conflict as a response to the occupation, though he emphasized his
preference for a peaceful resolution.
He advocated for a two-state solution, though he
acknowledged that this approach has been largely rejected by the Israeli
government.
Fani-Kayode defended the right of Palestinians to resist
oppression, drawing comparisons to historical figures who fought against
tyranny. He underscored his belief in eventual justice for Palestine, despite
the current global power dynamics.
“Our fight for justice and freedom is not in vain. Evil may
persist for a time, but eventually, it will be overcome. We must continue to
speak out and support the oppressed, as history has shown that righteousness
ultimately prevails.”
