A former Minister of Aviation, and spokesperson of former President Goodluck Jonathan’s campaign organisation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has said that Nigerians asked for the recent upsurge in Boko Haram attacks by refusing to renew Mr. Jonathan’s mandate, instead voting in Muhammadu Buhari as president.
Mr. Fani-Kayode said Mr. Buhari had always been sympathetic to Boko Haram.
“ Anyone that honestly believed that a man who secretly shares the same vision and core principles of Boko Haram and who spent many years defending them can do anything but give them a free hand when he comes to power is living in cuckoo land,” he said in a Facebook post Tuesday.
The remark was posted first on Monday, but was deleted before being re-posted on Tuesday.
Nigeria has in the last two weeks witnessed an escalation of Boko Haram’s bloody campaign, with several suicide bomb and gun attacks targeting places of worship, communities and public places, killing hundreds of people.
The latest attack occurred early Tuesday at a local government office in Zaria, Kaduna State.
Twenty five people were killed when a suspected suicide bomber detonated an explosive where civil servants had gathered for data verification in the Sabon Gari area of Zaria.
About 400 Nigerians are estimated to have been killed by the sect in the last five weeks.
Mr. Fani-Kayode, who recently changed his name to Femi Olukayode, in celebration of his court victory in a corruption case, said he was not surprised with the recent bombings and killings.
“I am not surprised by the resurgence of Boko Haram and their new-found barbarity, courage and zeal,” he said.
He also said the cause of the Boko Haram sect may have been aided by the removal of military checkpoints in towns and along highways.
He said the Nigerian government is also transferring Boko Haram suspects to Prisons in the eastern part of the country in order to ”spread the word” adding that no less than 182 Boko Haram suspects were released on the president’s orders just a few days ago.
“Is all this just a coincidence or is something that is dark and sinister now afoot in our country? “
“Whatever each of us may or may not believe, one thing is clear- that Boko Haram now have powerful friends and secret allies right at the epicentre of power and those friends and allies are running the affairs of the country,” he said.
Mr. Fani-Kayode said there is a much wider picture unfolding which the Nigerian people have yet to see and which they find difficult to accept, understand or comprehend.
“There is a hideous and frightful hidden agenda which is slowly manifesting before our very eyes. Though we warned them, the Nigerian people wanted ‘change’ so they must live with the consequences of their choice,” he said.
He also said one of those consequences is the new-found “audacity, courage, growing power and rising strength of Boko Haram”, while another is the “resurgence of a clearly ethnic agenda which is designed to leave no-one in doubt about who really owns Nigeria and who the slaves are”.
He said, yet another is the destruction and demystification of a national leader of the APC, Bola Tinubu, and his “Yoruba loyalists by his erstwhile northern allies in the APC”.
“Only a fool did not see that one coming and I am rather surprised that Tinubu’s followers are now crying foul and alleging that there is a northern conspiracy. Didn’t they know that before? Were they not warned over and over again?
“There are many other grave consequences which the Nigerian people will witness, in a most harrowing and frightful manner, in the next few months and years.
“May God deliver our people and our nation and may we learn to make the right choices,” he said.

FFK or FOK as he's nw being known is a disgrace to this Nation. Still wondering hw he was let free by our stupid n corrupt Judiciary system. He shd b behind bars by nw bt OH NO! He's a free man

FFK talks more than he thinks

I have stopped taking this FFK talk serious since he refused to attend his daughter's wedding.

Only a mad man talk this way.

So, he can say whatever he likes.

Na him sabi.

What kind of talk is this one ooo? Choi. President Slow poke, no vex, somebody dey follow you talk serious matter >

Well..?

.

e b like say your daughter wedding wey you know attend dey make your head dey kolo mental.

shoro niyen ?

Dunno what to say sha.

Ok...I thought they said he changed his name to Olukayode? By the way, this man is busy flexing part of Jonathan's campaign funds with his yellow paw-paw girlfriend

Na joke I dey o! Seriously, FFK has said the gospel truth!!!

Whether you like it or not..it's the truth. Don't expect sympathy for what you northerners voted for

You are very stvpid

Nobody holy pass

I hate this man but this he wrote is the truest form. You willingly sabotaged a government out of power and expect smooth sailing? I think not

Apc only plan was to remove my HERO (GEJ), they never plan to rule this country n that's why we are experiencing these problems...

Never thought things would turn so sour so soon, but many of the southerners who voted Buhari, will live to regret everyday of it. The game play is the same, just as it was in the 80s. This time there will be no IBB, we will have to take matters into our own hands.

What a disgusting statement from a loose canon!
Smh

Shoro niyen

Bobo yi ogbadun sha.

Does it means you are the one behind it all.

Nemesis will catch up with you soon. Oniranu.

Brain?
This man mouth is faster than his brain.......thats why he post and delete. When time comes now, they will be begging to settle out of court. He's talking and Tanoids are hailing, when he start receiving the fruits of his gibbrish, pls dont wail.

Bye bye to his political career. Regardless of his feelings there are some things you don't say in public. Senseless.

Boko haram has suddenly started bombing places. We have told those who cared to listen that pdp is the real sponsor of boko haram. I remember when Mr Azazi was killed for exposing pdp. But Insha Allah they will all be exposed.

Ppl still listen to this dude,sorry fool?

temitemi1:

So buhari is no longer a terrorist. Pdp and hypocrisy. But if I may ask, who allowed bk to grow? If gej could really stop them why didn't he stop them 6 years ago?

The young man said the truth but the headline is misleading.

Buhari as an elederstateman never condemned boko haram in strong terms during previous administration rather he and his Northern cohorts condemned the military offensive by GEJ.

Though I don't like his diarrhoea-stricken mouth though, but FFK is very close to the truth.

This is a confirmation that this guy is a crack addict. Who else but an addict would spill out all the garbage FFK just did.

vimi:
FFK talks more than he thinks

But can you really and in all honesty fault what he said. I think he read the times we are in well.
●Security issues
●Emergence of a powerful North
●Deconstruction/Humiliation of Tinubu and the Yorubas
●Ethnic bias/Northernization of Nigeria
●etc

Ppl like this who think they can smooth-talk everybody to do their bidding will for ever suck their disappointment. Would these boko haram menace have stopped by now if his paymaster (GEJ) is still the C I C?

Abi na you send them?, u should be investigated

A corrupt politician would always defend his godfather.

This rogue has overdone it this time for his sadistic glee at Boko Haram killings.

So there was no bomb blast during GEJs tenure. FfK means boko haram started the bombing just few weeks ago? Dumb m.oron

Once again, I think PMB has made FFK right. What Nigerians voted for isn't what we have seen in the last 38days.

I don't believe the change slogan is a scam but we need to see result and the result should be fast, besides the task of rebuilding Nigeria is a task that must be done.
