The Oodua People’s Congress (OPC) has knocked a former Minister for Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode over his statement on the identity of arrested terror Fulani herdsman, Iskilu Wakili.
Fani-Kayode had claimed that the arrested Fulani warlord in the custody of the Nigerian Police was not the real Wakili terrorizing Igangan and its environs.
The Oyo State Coordinator of the OPC, Rotimi Olumo, while responding to the claim made by the former minister warned him to stop “drumming the beat of disunity in Yorubaland wih his untenable claim”
Olumo said “Fani-Kayode has a reputation for using his social media page to torment trouble and cause disunity in Yorubaland. He had once said that the Yoruba language was Anago. How can you take such a person to be serious?
“I remembered former President Olusegun Obasanjo had said once that Fani-Kayode could do anything for money and survival.
“He lives in Abuja romancing with the North, yet he was the first to claim that the kidnapper was not Wakili. Where did he get his information?

“With his untenable claim, I know and I am sure that the former minister is doing the bid of his paymasters that are majorly from the North. He is the undisputed spokesperson of any politician that is ready to feather his nest.
“He should be warned to stop drumming the beat of disunity in Yorubaland. Fani-Kayode was one of the few people that called and congratulated our leader, the Aare Onakakanfo of Yorubaland, Iba Gani Adams on Monday on the success of the operation of the OPC, and the following day, he twisted the story refuting the claim that the man apprehended was not Wakili.”
“Fani-Kayode is very close to prominent politicians in the North, yet none of them trusts him because they know that he is purely a political agent that cannot be trusted. He did everything to change every story. How can you take such a man so serious.”
