Fani-Kayode Reacts To Killing Of Children, Women In Gaza

Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has reacted to the scheduled protest of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) following the outcome of the just concluded presidential election.

Naija News reported that the PDP National Chairman, Iyorchia Ayu, is set to lead party leaders, governors, and members on a protest march to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) headquarters, Abuja, over the outcome of the February 25 presidential election.

According to a notice released by the party on Sunday, the planned protest is expected to take off by 10am from the PDP headquarters, Legacy House, Maitama, Abuja.

The opposition party also directed members planning to attend the protest march to wear black attires in demonstration of the somber mood of the party.

Reacting via his Twitter page, Fani-Kayode said the planned protest is an attempt to incite Nigerians and destabilize the nation.

He called the attention of security personnel to stop the protest before things get escalated and might probably lead to the death of people.

The APC chieftain noted that the president-elect, Bola Tinubu, has sued for peace but it was rejected adding the party is ready for the plans of the opposition party.

He said: “The PDP’s protest march scheduled for tomorrow in Abuja is a dangerous precursor to something more sinister. They wish to incite the people & destabilise the nation. The security agencies should take note & stop this nonsense before things get out of hand & people are killed.

“How can you be in court and be protesting in the streets at the same time? @officialABAT has extended his hand in good faith for peace. He has invited them to the table of fellowship and leadership but in their destructive wrath and blind rage they have rejected it.

“We lose no sleep over their childish tantrums and empty threats. Whatever they are planning we are ready for them. Make no mistake about it: whatever it takes and whether it be in the street, the courts or elsewhere, we WILL defend our mandate”
