Politician Femi Fani-Kayode has stated that the Nigerian people will not accept or bow to the dictates and Salafist philosophy of a violent and unrepentant jihadist.
The former Aviation Minister said this following the statement by the Presidency on the issues raised against the Minister of Communication and Digital Economy, Dr Isa Pantami on his teaching on religious extremism.
FFK who tagged Pantami a ‘hater of Christians‘ stated that it is ‘insulting playing down the dangers and damage of having a man like Pantami in government.’
“There is NO place in any civilised nation for a terrorist who delights in killing his compatriots in the name of his faith. No matter who supports or defends him, the Nigerian people will NEVER accept or bow to the dictates & Salafist philosophy of a violent& unrepentant jihadist. Nigeria is a secular state. We oppose those who say otherwise and we deplore those that believe that they can continue to ignore the sensitivities of millions of Nigerians by playing down the dangers and damage of having a man like Pantami in Government. It is deeply insulting.”
