Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, says he foresaw the current crisis in the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
In a statement on his Facebook page, Fani-Kayode claimed that he warned the PDP leadership about the impending crisis, but they disregarded him.
He further predicted that this was just the beginning of the crisis in the party.
His statement read in part: “When I warned our people about President Muhammadu Buhari and what he would do with power no-one listened.
When I warned the PDP leadership and particularly our PDP governors about the dangers of making Ali Modu Sheriff National Chairman they would not listen.
I also told them that the government would NOT allow the convention to hold because Sheriff is working for them.
Now look at what they are doing in PH in collusion with some corrupt judges just to destabilise, destroy and silence the opposition.
Governors put under house arrest. Convention venue sealed off. Delegates prevented from entering the stadium. It is shameful.
Let me make a another prediction: this is just the beginning of their tyranny. It will get far worse. That is “mai chanji” for you!
The sooner the leaders of the PDP wake up, smell the coffee and appreciate the kind of monster they are dealing with and the sooner they elect and select leaders that are prepared to risk their lives and liberty to confront this government the better.
If you want democracy and freedom you must be prepared to confront the dictator and fight for it. Where there is no justice, there can be no peace. Where there is no freedom, there can be no joy.”
