Fani-Kayode will continue to torment Tinubu morning, day and night- PDP Presidential Campaign Group.
The Directorate of Media and Publicity of the Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation (PDPPCO) has attacked ex Governor and national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Bola Tinubu over his recent comment on Chief Femi Fani-Kayode. Below is a statement by The Directorate.
“For the record, let it be very clear, we will not stop this relentless onslaught on Buhari, the APC and Tinubu. As long as Chief Fani-Kayode is in this position, he will continue to torment Tinubu morning, day and night by speaking the bitter truth about him and his desperate, dirty and inglorious party. This will continue until Tinubu decides to purge himself of his evil ways and when he stops trying to destroy Yoruba land and Nigeria.

Oath-taking claims: A desperate act by an ailing spokesperson- APC
"Buhari didn't tell his foreign audience how much he loves Boko Haram." Femi Fani-kayode
Almost every member of the APC Campaign Organsiation is on this man’s case. Ekiti State Governor, Ayo Fayose’s grievances have been registered.
“We wonder whether General Buhari told his foreign audience whilst he was in London how much he loves Boko Haram. We wonder whether he told his audience that he once said that he believed that an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the north and that the Boko Haram terrorists should be appeased, pampered, resettled and paid allowances.
“For now, all we can say is that it is truly pitiful that a former Head of State of the Federal Republic of Nigeria believes that it is more important to win the hearts and minds of the British than it is to win the hearts and minds of the Nigerian people.
"Let us all be, you are not God" Femi Fani-Kayode tells Obasanjo.
APC has more thinking people than the PDP – Iyabo Obasanjo writes
Reactions have continue to trail erstwhile Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) Governor, Charles Soludo’s article published few days back.
Iyabo Obasanjo, former senator and daughter of ex Nigerian president, Olusegun Obasanjo has deemed the article as the best she has read recently on the real situation politically and economically in Nigeria.
Below is her writeup on Vanguard newspaper. Titled: Soludo, Fayemi and Fani-Kayode: My takeaway:
1. Professor Soludo’s article on the elections in Nigeria is the best writing I have read recently on the real situation politically and economically in Nigeria. The well-articulated response from Dr. Fayemi compared to the abuse infused response from Femi Fani-Kayode on the PDP side is a great example of the contrast of the status-quo compared to the alternative.
2. Whatever the case and I don’t expect miracles from APC but right now they have more thinking people than the PDP. As a Yoruba person, Dr. Fayemi’s response is how we expect our educated elite to take up issues and not the mad ranting’s of Fani-Kayode.
3. I agree with most of his premise but I do not think they (APC) can take up a massive public works program in a period of “famine” i.e. low oil prices.
4. During the great depression when Roosevelt used public works to help provide jobs, it was the stock market that failed i.e. Government revenue was affected from tax income but income from exportation which was then mainly agricultural goods was not affected.
5. The government could use money from its coffers to create jobs and provide skills and training, which people could then use in the private sector.
6. The best part of Dr. Fayemi’s response is that it is not elite focused. Nigerian governance as I saw it was not a democracy but an elitocracy. Govt of the elite by the elite for the elite and even if you grew up in near death poverty once you left those circumstances you forgot where you came from and concentrated on your immediate family and matters affecting the wellbeing of the elite.
7. Changing this perspective to make the elite understand that their wellbeing was in fact dependent on the wellbeing of the masses will be APC’s challenge.
8. They are sourcing from the same pool of elite talent that every Nigerian government has to source from and it is this pool that essentially has to be different or we will find ourselves again at precipice as usual.
