L-R: Nigeria's President Muhammadu Buhari and Femi Fani-Kayode, Fmr. Nigeria's Minister of Aviation |
Special Adviser to the President, Major
General Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina, has explained
why his principal hosted an unsparing critic of the regime and former minister
Femi Fani-Kayode in Aso Villa following his defection to the ruling All
Progress Congress, Punch Newspapers reports.
In the report, Adesina wrote:
Not a small ruckus has been caused by the
defection of former Minister of Aviation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode (FFK), from
the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) to the All Progressives Congress (APC) last
week.
An icing on the cake, or the salt added to
injury (depending on which side you are), was his reception at the Presidential
Villa by Muhammadu Buhari, father of the nation. The development has been
rocking the polity for many days.
FFK is by no means a miscellaneous
personality, and whatever he does, or does not do, attracts loads of attention.
