A former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has described the Minister for Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami as a friend and brother, months after berating him over his alleged link to Islamic terrorist organisation, Al-Qaeda.
Fani-Kayode had in a Facebook post on Thursday shared that he was in Bichi, Kano for the wedding of Yusuf Buhari, son of President Muhammadu Buhari to Zahra Bayero, daughter of Emir of Bichi, Nasir Ado-Bayero.
“Flew into Kano with my friends and brothers Governor Bello Matawalle of Zamfara state, Governor Babagana Umar Zulum of Borno State, Senator Sani Ahmed Yarima, Senator Ali Ndume, Ambassador Bashir Yuguda, Hon. Minister Isa Pantami, Mallam Nuhu Ribadu and others for the wedding ceremony of President Muhammadu Buhari’s son, Yusuf Buhari, to HRH Nasiru Ado Bayero, the Emir of Bichi’s daughter, Zahra Ado Bayero.
“The flight was great and we thank God for journey mercies. Kano is a massive, pulsating city that is steeped in tradition and history.
“It is a pleasure and a joy to be here. Will keep you posted,” he wrote.

Recall that Fani-Kayode had verbally shredded Pantami over his alleged link to Al-Qaeda and his extremist views.
He had described Pantami as a psychopathic, insane individual and also called for his resignation.
“Simply put, Pantami is a homicidal, sociopathic and psychotic individual…Who is a hater of Christians and non-Muslims. He is a religious bigot, an ethnic supremacist, an unrepentant jihadist, a lover of bloodshed, carnage and terror and a psychopathic and clearly insane individual who may well have been responsible for the slaughter of many innocent Christians over the years as a consequence of his inflammatory rhetoric and reckless actions,” Fani-Kayode wrote.
