Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has reacted to a
comment credited to a factional national chairman of the People’s Democratic Party,
PDP, Ali Modu Sheriff that he sent people to beg the former Borno Governor for
claiming that he was a member of Boko Haram.
Fani-Kayode in a statement to DAILY POST Sunday night said
“These are the lies of a desperate and drowning man”.
He said Sheriff came to destroy the PDP and that the party
acted appropriately by rising up against him with the installation of a
caretaker committee.
Continuing he said, “I am proud to have been the first to
see him for what he is and to publicly blow the whistle on him. “I was one of those that led the rebellion against him and
orchestrated the campaign to push him out and dump him as the National Chairman
of our party and many have thanked me for that including some of those that
brought him in the first place and attempted to impose him on us. “The man is of the devil and no-one should believe a word
that comes out of his mouth or take him seriously. He is a curse to the PDP and
the sooner he is kicked out of the party the better it is for us all.
“On the issue of ‘changing goal posts’, let me add the
following. Lying Ali Modu Sheriff has changed political parties no less than
four times in the last few years. “Each time he goes to a new party that is not in power at
the center, he assumes the role of a government mole and spy and tries to
destroy it from within on behalf of the government of the day. “That is his modus operandi. On return, he gets protection
from the state for all the many atrocities he has committed over the years. He
has betrayed everyone and every political party he has ever worked with or for. “Go and ask around. We used him to spy on and destroy the
APP when Obasanjo was in power and now Buhari is using him to destroy the PDP.
Luckily he has failed because 99 per cent of PDP members have rejected him and
now he is on his own.
“He failed in his evil mission and now he is making noise
like a chicken or snake whose head has been cut off. Unlike him I am consistent
in my views and I am as constant as the northern star. “It is a matter of good breeding. With me you will always
know where you stand and I will always speak my mind no matter whose ox is
gored. He is the opposite.
“He is more of a gangster than a politucian and everyone
knows it. He comes into another mans house or political party and tries to pull
it down by deceit and guile. He is a vessel of destruction.
“That is the man who some misguided people believe can be
trusted. He was in APP, then ANPP, then APC and now he is in PDP all in a
matter of a few years and everywhere he goes he fights everyone until they get tired
of him and push him out.
“If anyone wants to talk about ‘changing goal posts’, it
should certainly not be him”.
