PDP Tells Buhari What To Do With Fani-Kayode’s Corruption Case

Fani-Kayode corruption charges

Femi Fani-Kayode is a worthless political entity who will add to the negative perception of the All Progressives Congress, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said on Tuesday as it called on the Muhammadu Buhari government to make his corruption trial a test case of its ability to fight graft.

The PDP reacting to the defection of Fani-Kayode to the APC said that the former minister was interestingly never registered with the party in either his Ile-Ife, Osun State place of birth or in Abuja where he lived.

The PDP spoke through its Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Hon Diran Odeyemi.

Odeyemi who interestingly is from Ile-Ife as Fani-Kayode charged the Buhari administration not to ever drop the corruption case levelled against him initially during the PDP administration.

The PDP statement read in part:

“If for nothing else, now that Fani Kayode and all the other politicians that decamped from PDP into APC with running EFCC cases, we expect him to swing into action on their corruption cases and ensure a more thorough prosecution.

“With that done, he will be convincing Nigerians that those decampees were not pressured into joining APC so as to free them of EFCC cases. If truly he is fighting corruption, cases of someone like Fani-Kayode, alleged of embezzling almost N2billion, meant for the construction runaway in Enugu airport must now receive speedy trial.

“Since he has joined them now, they have no need looking around for him anymore because we believe that his going to them will be an opportunity to speed up action on his case.

“We declare Fani-Kayode a political liability. We are not missing him in any way. He is not a card-carrying member of PDP because he didn’t register anywhere. He has no constituency, no electoral value, no followership, he is just living on the past glory of being a Minister.

“We wish APC well for taking away bad baggage that Femi Fani-Kayode represents. Interestingly, APC members are even protesting against his coming to join their party.”
