Fani-Kayode Reacts To Buhari Saying He Assumed Office In 2005

A former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has mocked President Muhammadu Buhari for saying he and his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), came into power in 2005 as against May 29, 2015.

Naija News reports that President Buhari made the gaffe during the presidential rally in Ekiti, Southwest Nigeria on Tuesday while he was trying to remind the people that his party was conscious of the promises it made in 2015.

In a video which has gone viral on social media, the President while addressing the people said, “We are very conscious of the promises we made when we were coming in 2005” instead of 2015.

Moments after the video of the President’s gaffe went viral, Fani-Kayode, a strong critic of the President, took to the micro-blogging site, Twitter, to question why some people want President Buhari to govern them for another four years when he should be resting.

The former minister tweeted: “Buhari has done it again! Today as he addressed the crowd at his Ekiti rally he told them that he was elected into office “in 2005”.

“The senility and diseased mind that plagues this creature is getting worse by the day. Is this what some say should lead Nigeria for another 4 yrs?”
