While answering a question in a programme on Channels Television,
"Sunday Politics", last night, the factional national chairman of the
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ali Modu-Sheriff advised Nigerians not
to take Femi Fani-Kayode seriously.
“Fani-Kayode is not the kind of man that Nigerians should take
seriously. He changes the goal post on every matter. When Fani-Kayode
accused me of Boko Haram sponsorship, I asked my lawyers to write him,
and he started begging, he sent about 20 people to me,” he reportedly said.
In a quick response to the claim by the Sheriff, Fani-Kayode
immediately issued a statement to debunk the claim, and later went on
Twitter to make some more revelations.
Below is a statement posted on his Twitter page on Sunday night;
"Lying Ali Modu Sheriff told Channels TV that I sent people to
beg him for claiming that he was Boko Haram. These are the lies of a
desperate and drowning man. He came to destroy the PDP and if we did not
rise up against him and kick him out when we did he would have
succeeded in his mission.
"I am proud to have been the first to see him for what he is and to publicly blow the whistle on him.
“I was one of those that led the rebellion against him and
orchestrated the campaign to push him out and dump him as the National
Chairman of our party and many have thanked me for that including some
of those that brought him in the first place and attempted to impose him
on us.
“The man is of the devil and no-one should believe a word that
comes out of his mouth or take him seriously. He is a curse to the PDP
and the sooner he is kicked out of the party the better it is for us
all.
“On the issue of ‘changing goal posts’, let me add the
following. Lying Ali Modu Sheriff has changed political parties no less
than four times in the last few years.
“Each time he goes to a new party that is not in power at the
center, he assumes the role of a government mole and spy and tries to
destroy it from within on behalf of the government of the day.
“That is his modus operandi. On return, he gets protection from
the state for all the many atrocities he has committed over the years.
He has betrayed everyone and every political party he has ever worked
with or for.
“Go and ask around. We used him to spy on and destroy the APP
when Obasanjo was in power and now Buhari is using him to destroy the
PDP. Luckily he has failed because 99 per cent of PDP members have
rejected him and now he is on his own.
“He failed in his evil mission and now he is making noise like a
chicken or snake whose head has been cut off. Unlike him I am
consistent in my views and I am as constant as the northern star.
“It is a matter of good breeding. With me you will always know
where you stand and I will always speak my mind no matter whose ox is
gored. He is the opposite.
“He pretends to be a friend and a loyalist when his real plan
is to stab you in the back and kill you on the night. He does not have
the courage to be loyal to any cause, any person or any political party.
“He is more of a gangster than a politucian and everyone knows
it. He comes into another mans house or political party and tries to
pull it down by deceit and guile. He is a vessel of destruction.
“That is the man who some misguided people believe can be
trusted. He was in APP, then ANPP, then APC and now he is in PDP all in a
matter of a few years and everywhere he goes he fights everyone until
they get tired of him and push him out.
“If anyone wants to talk about ‘changing goal posts’, it should certainly not be him”.
