BREAKING NEWS: Fani-Kayode dumps APC, unites with Jonathan for 2015
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode (FFK), says he has just realized that President Goodluck Jonathan is a responsible leader.
The former minister was at the Presidential Villa in Abuja today to meet with Jonathan.
Addressing State House journalists after the closed door meeting, Fani-Kayode said he would never agree to the alleged plan by the APC to field two Muslims as presidential candidate and running mate for the 2015 general elections.
He said though he had been a critic of Jonathan’s administration, there was nothing wrong in resolving “issues” with the president.
Fani-Kayode later headed for the Office of the Chief of Staff to the president.
Since the news of FFK’s visit to GEJ got to the media, the social media has gone wild with several comments questioning the character of FFK. Here are some comments:
Umar Bukar · Architect at Landbase Associates
“I guess he headed to the Chief of staff’s office to collect his own share of our $20 Billion… Ok ooo Nigerian ‘s have always and will always vote along ethnic and religious lines even when Buhari ran with a pastor as his VP…”
Tanko Ayub · Top Commenter on daily trust
“Has he any electoral value? NO. Even in his ward. Attention was not given to him in APC. Food don dey table politician!”
Mallam Gandhi · University of Dundee
“An Empty sack politician. Probably he was in APC just to be an information conduit pipe. But when he realised he has no relevance in the party and have no access to vital party information that he share with his paymasters, he chose showing his true original face.”
Many have alleged that the talented poet may be looking for better paymasters.
