Femi Fani Kayode must apologize to President Buhari- APC Professional’s demands
The APC Professionals Forum, demands an apology from former Aviation minister Femi Fani-Kayode to President Muhammadu Buhari and members of the ruling party before he is allowed to defect to the party.
The group made the demand in a press statement signed by the National Coordinator, Hon Akeem Akintayo and made available to Aluta News on Saturday in Abuja
The group emphasized that the apology is necessary because of the unprintable words Fani Kayode used over the years to describe President Buhari and APC
The group welcomed efforts of the party leadership to woo new members but expressed concerns “over the manner some individuals are being brought into the progressive fold”
Hon Akintayo said: “We cannot eat from our vomit as a party and continue to recruit known foot soldiers of PDP who don’t share our values and belief in a better and progressive Nigeria which President Buhari represents.
“If the questionable political characters have genuinely repented from their hateful and divisive politics that almost pitched Nigerians against Nigerians during the previous campaigns, we as progressives and founding members of APC urge Chief Femi Fani Kayode who now sees APC as a haven to tender a public apology to President Buhari whom he had publicly ridiculed and insulted in the past, as well as Nigerians his likes have deceived as a result of their unprincipled politics.”
The group also advised the Caretaker National and Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee to henceforth tread carefully in enticing opposition figures into the party.
Let’s exercise caution even as we push for reconciliation of old and new members.
“We must avoid admitting politicians who do not share our values and who are really agents of division who are desperate to demarket the party against the vision of our founding fathers,” it added.
The group said it would continue to advocate for better management of the party’s affairs and good governance by APC political office holders at all levels
