FEMI FANI-KAYODE STILL HOLDS PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN IN VERY HIGH ESTEEM
Our attention has been drawn to a report titled “Fani-Kayode blasts
Jonathan; says President is leaving legacy of ‘destruction and
disaster’”, being circulated in the social media, and wish to put the
records straight once and for all.
The statement being referred to was lifted from media reports of
April 25, 2013 (two years ago), during the sojourn of Chief Femi
Fani-Kayode in the All Progressives Congress (APC). The report does not,
in any way, represent Chief Femi Fani-Kayode’s opinion of President
Jonathan whom he holds in very high esteem, a fact that made the former
Minister of Aviation work so vigorously for Mr President as Director,
Media and Publicity of his campaign organization in the just concluded
presidential election. The relentless efforts of Chief Fani-Kayode in
the course of the campaigns have been acknowledged by Mr President as
well as the generality of Nigerians. The cordial relationship that
exists between them is exemplary and legendary.
We are very much aware that the reason for this latest round of
unwarranted scheme by enemies of Nigeria is to sow the seed of discord
and create acrimony between the president and one of his most reliable
allies in particular, and in the PDP in general. But their plans have
since failed!
We therefore call on all those who are behind this show of shame and
advise them in the strongest terms possible, to desist from such acts of
cowardice, wickedness, preposterousness and puerility as they blow no
one any good wind. We also call on all patriotic and well-meaning
Nigerians to ignore such reports and treat them as non-existent whether
now or any other time in the future.
Mr President is our leader and Chief Femi Fani-Kayode holds him in very
high esteem, accord him the respect he deserves and is very proud to be
associated and to have worked for him. The relationship between these
two great men remains cordial. No degree of campaign of calumny by
misguided elements can change this very fact!

Jude C. Ndukwe
