Former Aviation Minister Femi Fani-Kayode has stated that the country is headed for the rocks if a lover of Al-Qaeda, the Taliban and Osama Bin Laden heads a critical ministry in the government.
Nigerians have called for the resignation and removal from office the Minister of Communication and Digital Economy, Dr Isa Pantami for his extremist teaching and also a revelation that he is happy when unbelievers are killed.
In a statement, the Presidency through its spokesman, Garba Shehu defended the assertion stating that it was made when the Minister was a younger man in the 2000s. But in the 2000s, the Minister who is 49 years old today was in his early 30s.
FFK also lambasted Sheikh Gumi Ahmad who warned that Nigerians will regret it if the Minister is removed from office, citing that the federal government has been taken over by heartless and murderous jihadist.

“I will not mention names but when a Salafist terrorist who says he loves Al Qaeda & the Taliban, who says Osama Bin Ladin was a better Muslim than him, who says he is happy when “unbelievers” are killed, who says he will lead Muslims into Christian areas as their “commander” avenge their deaths & who hates Christians & non-Muslims with a passion continues to occupy a critical & sensitive position in Govt. even after millions of Nigerians have demanded his removal or resignation you know we are heading for the rocks.
Again when a supposedly respected Islamic cleric who acts as a front & go-between for foreign Fulani bandits & terrorists, who facilitate the payment of ransoms to them& who loves & constantly defends them, tells us that if that man is removed from Govt. we will “regret it”, we can comfortably conclude that our country is under the power & influence of a bunch of murderous & heartless jihadists. This is not a democracy. It is the rulership of the Janjaweed. It is the manifestation of an ancient agenda & the fulfilment of an ancient prophecy.
Those that believe that they are the owners of Nigeria do not see our country as a modern day 21st century secular state but rather as a conquered territory which is in the process of being transformed into a full-fledged Islamic & Fulanised state in which Christians, non-Muslims, non-Fulanis & moderate Muslims will be rendered useless & worthless & will become willing slaves, pitiful beggars & wretched serfs. Millions of us would rather die than accept such an arrangement & we will fight to the last man to resist it. We have nowhere to go or run.
We will stand our ground, hold the line, build up our defences & guard our space for the sake of future generations. We are either all equal before God & the law or we will end this godless, unequal & unholy union. We will either build a new Nigeria in which everyone is regarded as a human being with rights & dignity or we will have no Nigeria at all. We stand at the gates in the name of the God & take a solemn oath that those that seek to destroy and enslave us shall not have their way & shall not pass!”
