death
Femi Fani-Kayode,

he was facing espionage charges.
He was overthrown
in 2013 following mass protests a year after he resumed office.
Reacting to Morsi’s
death, Fani-Kayode on his Twitter page wrote “Mohammed Morsi, leader of the
terrorist Muslim Brotherhood and President of Egypt from 2012 to 2013 has died

“He suffered a
heart attack and dropped dead in open court after saying he wanted to issue a
statement in an espionage case. Tyrants never end well.”
God will expose you – Fani-Kayode reveals how Gov. Bagudu stopped
confirmation of ‘Christian’ Chief Judge
Femi Fani-Kayode,
former Minister of Aviation has revealed the reason behind non-confirmation of
acting Chief Judge, Justice Esther Kataru, as the substantive Chief Judge of
Kebbi State by Governor Atiku Bagudu.
We had
reported that the Kebbi Acting Chief Judge petitioned the National Judicial
Commission, NJC, over Bagudu’s
alleged refusal to confirm her as chief judge.
But, reacting Gov.
Bagudu while swearing in Justice Suleiman Ambursa as Acting Chief Judge of the
state said that Kataru’s appointment was not confirmed due
to alleged alteration of her date of birth and primary school certificate.
However,
Fani-Kayode in a series of posts on his Twitter page on Sunday accused Gov.
Bagudu of being behind the news of fake primary school certificate allegation
against Karatu.
Describing Bagudu
as a ‘religious bigot and misogynist’, Fani-Kayode said Bagudu pressurized the
Speaker of the State House of Assembly to reject Kataru after the State
Judicial Council had selected her and recommended her for confirmation.
The former minister
wrote: “I have just spoken to the former Acting Chief Judge of Kebbi state,
Justice Asabe Karatu and I confirm that what Gov. Atiku Bagudu did to her was
utterly shameful. The allegation that she has a fake primary school certificate
is false and she has since proved it.
“It was a lie
cooked up by the Governor who pressurized the Speaker of the State House of
Assembly to reject her after the State Judicial Council had selected her and
recommended her for confirmation.
“Even the State
House of Assembly itself later did a U-turn and offered to confirm her but the
Governor again stopped them from doing so and quickly swore someone else in.
“Karatu has been in
the state civil service for 38 years. She served diligently and with integrity.
She is a pride to her Zuru people and to Kebbi state generally. Yet Atiku
Bagudu wants to destroy her career and ruin her life all because she is a
Christian and he is hell-bent on controlling the state judiciary.
“Bagudu has not
appointed one Christian as either a Commissioner or Permanent Secretary since
he became Governor of Kebbi. All that and he expects us to believe that he has
no problem with Christians.
“The man is a
religious bigot and a misogynist who wishes to control everything and everyone
around him.I have a message for him: you have used your earthly power to
destroy others but the God that we serve will expose you. shame you and
vindicate Asabe Kataru.
“You will not be
Governor forever and you will not escape his wrath. One day He will call you to
account and you will pay for the wickedness and evil persecution that you have
subjected his children to.”
Presidential election: Nigeria sitting on gunpower – Fani-Kayode warns
INEC
Femi Fani-Kayode,
former Aviation Minister, has warned that Nigeria is sitting on a keg of gun
powder that could trigger and ignite a monumental “cataclysmic explosion, the
likes of which have never been seen”.
He said this in
reaction to the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, claim that
they never used a server during the 2019 presidential election.
INEC had told the
Presidential Election Petition Tribunal that its officials never transmitted
election results from their polling units electronically during the just
concluded presidential election.
However,
Fani-Kayode urged the electoral commission to stop playing with the future of
Nigerians.
In a series of
tweets, Fani-Kayode wrote: “You said you had a server and told us how much you
spent on it. You complained that others had illegally gained access to it and
that they ought to be arrested. Yet when the matter got to court, you changed
the story and said you have no server. What type of strange abracadabra is
this?
“Please stop
playing Russian roullete with the future of our country. People’s eyes are open
and we are sitting on a keg of gunpowder right now. If care is not taken you
will pull the trigger and ignite a monumental and cataclysmic explosion the
likes of which have never been seen.”
Kano Emirate: Fani-Kayode reacts to Ganduje’s plan to depose Emir
Sanusi
A former Minister
of Aviation and chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Chief Femi
Fani-Kayode, has reacted to reports claiming that the Kano State Governor,
Abdullahi was planning to depose the Emir of Kano, Muhammadu Sanusi ll.
The Ganduje-led
administration queried Sanusi for allegedly misappropriating the Emirate
Council’s N3.4 billion.
Our Correspondent
reliably gathered that the Emir was queried after the submission of a report by
the State office of the anti-corruption and Public Complaint Commission who
investigated him on the alleged squandering of the Emirate Council’s funds.
The report which
was submitted to the Government late Tuesday is said to have recommended for
the immediate suspension of the Emir.
The government has
consequently handed down a query to the Emir through the Office of the
Secretary to the Government, Usman Alhaji late Tuesday.
We reported
that the government is planning on the complete deposition of the Emir when a
final report of its forthcoming panel of inquiry comes out indicting Sanusi.
However,
Fani-Kayode said that what Gov. Ganduje was doing to Sanusi was unacceptable.
In a tweet on
Thursday, Fani-Kayode wrote: “I’m not the greatest fan of the Emir of Kano but
I believe in justice for all regardless of my personal views about the victim
of persecution and oppression or my prejudices. What Gov. Ganduje is doing to
the Emir is unacceptable. It is petty, vindictive and politically-motivated.”
FFK reacts to Pastor Kumuyi's call for Christians to stop attacking
President Buhari
Former Aviation
Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has reacted to the call made by Clergyman and
founder of the Deeper Christian Life Church, Pastor Williams Kumuyi,
for Christians to desist from attacking President Buhari either through
speaking, news paper publications or any other means.
The clergyman while
preaching in his Church in Gbagada, Lagos state yesterday Sunday, June 2nd,
said it is ungodly to speak or attack constituted authority.
According to him, God expects Christians to submit to their leaders.
Taking to his
Twitter handle to react to Kumuyi's call, FFK wrote
"Don't attack Buhari"-
Kumuyi.
God deliver us from
shepherds that slaughter the sheep, that defend the cruel, that support
injustice, that love the wicked, that serve the tyrant, that despise the weak, that
enslave the poor and that worship genocidal maniacs and sociopathic butchers.
