Fani-Kayode Goes Spiritual Over May 29
Ahead of the May 29 swearing in ceremony for President-elect Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, his fellow party man and former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has gone spiritual as he a envisages better life for Nigerians under his leadership.
Fani-Kayode, a member of APC presidential campaign council, in a lengthy post on his verified Twitter handle, @realFFK, on Friday, said “after the swearing in of our President-elect, @officialABAT, it will be a time for healing our land, building bridges between our people, showing love to our adversaries, re-building our nation, establishing eternal peace with all men of goodwill and putting an end to the hostility and acrimony that exists between us all.”
Waxing even more spiritual, the ex-Minister added that “the new dispensation will usher in a new and refreshing era in which our beautiful and great nation shall excel and go from strength to strength. Nigeria must and will play her expected role in the emerging new world order. She must and will take her rightful place in the comity of nations. She must and will rise and shine in her God-sent power and glory.
“She must and will become who and what the ancient oracles of the Living God have said she is: the Giant of Africa and the hope of the black man. We are Nigerians, sons and daughters of a great and powerful nation boasting of no less than 250 million God-loving and God-fearing people of different ethnic nationalities and religious faiths and bound together by destiny, faith and hope.
“Our diversity is our pride and joy and our faith in God is our strong defender and our shield and buckler. Our collective travails, trials and tribulations are the fiery furnace in which our unity has been forever forged. The labours and sacrifices of our heroes past shall never be forgotten or in vain. They toiled, struggled and suffered and established a great and noble foundation that we may have a better tomorrow.
“Our singular and sacred obligation and honorable duty before God is never to forget their sacrifices and to honor their memories by keeping hope alive and building on their great and noble legacy.”
FFK’s supplications attracted a lot of feedback. While many respondents applauded his ‘spirituality’ and endlessly said ‘amen’ to his prayers, his critics didn’t spare him as they called him names and jeered at him.
