A Human Rights Activist and Lawyer, Reno Omokri, has said that there are suspicions surrounding the the defection of former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani Kayode (FFK) to the APC shortly after the leader of the IPOB, Nnamdi Kanu and Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Igboho were arrested.
FFK who was a staunch PDP member and a vocal opposition to the President Muhammadu Buhari’s led administration and the All Progressives Congress (APC), as a party, was officially received by the President in Abuja yesterday, Thursday, September 16 as a member of the APC which it vowed with his life not to identify with.
Following the former minister’s defection, Omokri in his official Facebook page, questioned how Kanu and Igboho whom FFK had termed ‘brothers/friends’ could “end up in Buhari’s trap”, then he defects to the president’s political party.
He added that the scenario looks like 30 pieces of silver (probably referring to Judas selling Jesus Christ in the bible).
Omokri wrote;
“You say you are a friend of Sunday Igboho. You called him your brother. You called Nnamdi Kanu your “friend and brother” and one of the most courageous persons you know. You see what this demon in human flesh is doing to these freedom fighters, yet you do this? It makes me suspicious. How can these two people, who were close to you, and who confided in you, end up in Buhari’s trap and then you join his party? This looks like 30 pieces of silver! At this point, I would very much hate to be your friend and brother.”
In another post, Omokri wrote;
“Politics without shame is the bane Nigeria. This is why I urge those who love Nigeria to also love business. When you have independent sources of money, you will never call a cow your brother because you want to eat meat.
How can you know that a person is an inveterate and incurable nepotistic tribalist, and you have said so yourself, then you kowtow to him? Buhari is the worst thing to happen to Nigeria, and APC is a gathering of all that is wrong in Nigeria..
May I never be in a situation where I will have to return to my vomit because my stomach is empty. God I beg you. I beg you. In Christ’s Name!”
