Fani-Kayode is looking forward to seeing APC in court

Chief Femi Fani-Kayode on Tuesday, said he stood by his comments about the All Progressives Congress and some of its leaders, nothing that he looked forward to meeting the party in court.

The Former Minister of Aviation, who recently defected from the APC to the PDP, had during an interview he granted Channels TV, on Monday, accused some APC leaders of being sympathetic towards the Boka Haram sect.

APC has threatened to sue Fani-Kayode if he did not retract the comments and apologise to the party.
Fani-Kayode in a statement on Tuesday said he would never apologise to the APC or its spokeperson, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, for saying “the truth.”

Fani-Kayode said, “I wish to make it clear that I stand by every single allegation and assertion that I made in the said interview and that I believe strongly that the APC comprises at least a handful of Boko Haram sympathisers and questionable individuals who have at various times expressed a certain degree of support for Boko Haram.

“Though he denied it, it is on record that Lai Mohammed protested about and opposed the proscription of Boko Haram by the Federal Government in various newspapers on June 10, 2013 and he described such proscription as being unconstitutional and/or extra-constitutional and wrong in various newspapers.”

He added that Mohammed, on behalf of his party, also opposed the idea of Boko Haram being labelled as a terrorist organisation by the United States of America.


I think the records are there to ascertain if Fani-Kayode’s last statements are true.
