Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Fayode (FFK) blew hot on Tuesday in his reaction to Peter Obi\u2019s endorsement by ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo.<\/p>\n

In an article titled \u201cWhat have they done to our baba\u201d, the politician stated that \u201cSomething has clearly gone wrong\u201d.<\/p>\n

He mocked \u201dhow Obasanjo spoke in glowing terms about Peter the Pooh and Dati the Daft amazes me\u201d.<\/p>\n

FFK accused Obi of persecuting non-Catholics, Muslims and non-indigenes in Anambra, including Northerners and Yorubas.<\/p>\n

He alleged that as a Governor, the Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate \u201cinvested state funds into his family business and had secret bank accounts in Panama\u201d.<\/p>\n

The All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain said Obi and his running mate Yusuf Baba-Ahmed control an army of trolls on social media.<\/p>\n

Their only mandate is to insult, denigrate, threaten, intimidate and attack anyone who disagrees with their principal. he noted.<\/p>\n

\u201cLike Peter, Adolf Hitler started in a similarly charming, humble and alluring manner, hiding his true colours long before he wormed his way into power.<\/p>\n

\u201cBy the end of it all Germany, and indeed the entire world, paid a heavy price for their folly.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fani-Kayode said unlike Obi neither Bola Tinubu (APC) nor Atiku Abubakar (PDP) has been going to Mosques or Churches to \u201cincite the passions of believers, preaching religious politics and hate\u201d.<\/p>\n

The former presidential aide warned that a vote for Obi will be one step closer to the break-up of Nigeria and a second civil war.<\/p>\n

FFK lambasted the candidate for \u201crefusing to condemn the brutal killing and killers in the South-East who kidnap and murder anyone and everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI respect and love Baba OBJ, I always will and unlike others, I believe that his record in public office was extraordinary, unassailable and spectacular.<\/p>\n

\u201cHowever I think his rabid opposition to Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu particularly is misplaced, sad and unfortunate.<\/p>\n

\u201cI also believe it is rooted in something personal which is deeper, darker and more sinister than mere politics and this saddens me deeply\u201d, he added.<\/p>\n
