2019: Fani-Kayode reacts to Obasanjo’s statement that Nigeria will collapse if Buhari wins

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has reacted to a statement credited to former President, Olusegun Obasanjo, who reportedly said the country will collapse if President Muhammadu Buhari is reelected for second term in 2019.

Obasanjo was quoted as making this comment at Blavatnik School of Government, Oxford University on Friday.

Reacting via a tweet, the former minister said Nigeria needed to be freed from the shackles of Fulani.

He wrote, “Nigeria will collapse if Buhari wins 2019 election”– President Olusegun Obasanjo, Blavatnik School of Government, Oxford University, March 17, 2018.

“Baba has stated the obvious. I am glad that he has seen the light. May God bless him.

“The struggle is not against Buhari but against what he represents: the hegemony and impunity of the Fulani ruling class and the barbarity of their murderous footsoldiers known as the herdsmen. It is not a struggle between political parties but a quest for liberation from the Fulani.”
