MR. BAYO OLADEJI, A SEASONED AND EXPERIENCED JOURNALIST WHO WRITES FOR THE LEADERSHIP NEWSPAPER, WROTE:
”When Chief Femi Fani-Kayode came out to expose the plan of the APC chieftains to impose a Muslim/Muslim ticket on the party, their attacking dogs were ordered to abuse him using words picked from the gutter.
They even told us he was never part of them!…
Chief Tom Ikimi came out and corroborated him and they said he was telling a moon tale.
They then reccalled his participation in the Abacha evil rule which murdered Ken Saro Wiwa as if their hero, Muhammadu Buhari did not play same role in the same government.
When I raised the issue here after confirming from those who were involved in the plan, some who can never talk to their hero rise up ignorantly to fault me.
But since President Olusegun Obasanjo did the same, their response remains a deafening silence! When I was growing up, I was told, SILENCE MEANS CONSENT. Meaning those who have been saying it are not wrong after all.
The Church has been keeping mum for so long and they are cornering all for themselves. For example, I have challenged the apologists of APC to list of names and the religions of all their political appointees in the Southwest especially the following- the governors, SSG, Speakers, Finance Commissioners in all the APC controlled states in the southwest. Let us see how fair they are to the two religions in the country.
If they could do this at the state level where they have someone who claims to be a Christian as deputy governor, we wonder what they would do when they have the President and the Vice President from them. In the whole of the North, there is only one Christians in the NEC and the NWC of the APC. His name Engineer Babachir David Lawal from Adamawa State!
And if you know the extent he went to get that seat, you would know what that party is up to. These are the issues. It goes beyond President Jonathan. If the party did not change, God spares our lives, come 2019, you will still find me doing the same.
Until the rotten tooth is pulled out of the mouth, the mouth will continue eating with caution.
It is tragic irony that those who have come out to defend them are those who claim of being Christians”- BAYO OLADEJI, 31st OCTOBER, 2014
