Former
Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has penned a thought-provoking
letter to President Muhammadu Buhari, warning him to stop feeding
Nigerians with lies.
Fani in his letter reminded the President not to forget the fact that the same way someone handed over to him, so he will definitely do one day, stressing that leadership was not all about revenge.
His letter reads below:
“Mr. President, as one of your most loyal and faithful subjects who has nothing but the utmost respect for your person and your office I am constrained to write you this open letter.
This is because there are a number of issues that I believe that it is important for you to clarify and to come clean on. I say this because some of your assertions of late are at best contradictory and at worst patently dishonest.
Whichever side of the political divide we are on I believe that we can all agree on one thing: that the prosecution of the war against terror is not something that any of us should play politics with.
