Former aviation minister, Femi Fani-kayode has joined other Nigerians, who are sympathetic with plight of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), to disagree with Doyin Okupe over the role of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and President Muhammadu Buhari in the opposition party’s crisis. Okupe had posted a statement on his Facebook page saying that the failed PDP convention should not be blamed on APC or Buhari but the internal conflicts with the PDP.

Rather the blame should rest squarely on the failure of internal conflict resolution machinery of the PDP, the surprising naivety and desperation of many to seize power and control the party, and the gullibility of majority of the followership, who have become entrenched in the cesspool of pervasive impunity of our leadership over the years,” he said. But Fani-Kayode disagreed. According to him, the APC and Buhari played a massive role in ensuring that the PDP’s crisis was blown up. “Egbon mi (my brother), I beg to differ. There can never be any compromise with Sheriff. You cannot compromise and negotiate with the devil or a man that wants your head on a silver platter. Sheriff is working for Buhari to destroy the PDP and he has almost succeeded. The only answer is to continue to fight him in the courts and elsewhere and, if push comes to shove, form another party, get our members and supporters to join that party and leave the bastard with the carcass of the PDP. Very few people will stay with him because he is a plague,” Fani-Kayode spat much to the admiration of many of Okupe’s followers. “I can’t believe this is coming from you sir. You typed “long live PDP” to tell us you are still a PDP member whereas your write-up clearly depicts the opposite. Buhari should not be blamed for disrupting the the national convention with security personnel which should have been ongoing by now. They are just manipulating the judiciary over there. The days of Justice Abang are numbered I believe,” a follower, Kevin Onuja wrote to Okupe.

HE is currently working for Buhari, an APC led administration. So take note sir.” But Okupe had supporters too. One follower named Adedoyin Banjo-Adeniyi saluted Okupe saying, “Why is it difficult to do the right thing? Technically, Makarfi Committee stands dissolved Abang will nullify what was done today. Egbon Doyin Okupe you better go and team up with him if you still want to be in opposition or gently join APC.” Fani-Kayode followed this with a long statement detailing how Sheriff was planted within the PDP and was used by the APC to cause an implosion with the opposition. “Egbon mi, I beg to differ. If you remember I warned the governors about Shetiff when they imposed him on us. “The PDP Ministers Forum rejected him as did the PDP Board of Trustees but the governors would not listen. Now we have been vindicated because everything that we said would happen has come to pass. “The imposition of Sheriff by the Governors Forum was the biggest mistake that we have made since conceeding the election to Buhari and frankly, as I wrote at the time, I believe that he bewitched the governors that brought him and indeed those in the party that accepted him and agreed to work with him. “Now the power of the spell has worne off and their eyes have opened. Sadly, though things will get worse because Sheriff is under orders: he is working a script and that script was crafted by those who commissioned him to divide, weaken and kill our party. “When you open your doors for a snake what do you expect? I am not surprised by all he is doing because he is acting true to type: he is a green snake who has dipped his fangs deeply into our flesh and whose poison is kiling us slowly. “Truth is that there can never be any compromise with Sheriff. You cannot compromise with the devil or a snake. “You cannot wine and dine or attempt to cohabit with a creature that the great writer and teacher, Mr. David Icke, describes as a “shape-shifting sociopath and reptilian”. “There can be no fellowship between light and darkness even in politics. You cannot negotiate with a narcistic megalomaniac who wants your head to be cut off and served to him on a silver platter. “Sheriff is working for Buhari to destroy the PDP and he has almost succeeded in his mission. “The only answer is for us to continue to fight him in the courts and elsewhere and, if push comes to shove, form another party, get our members and supporters to join that party and leave the bastard with the carcass of the old PDP. “Very few people will stay with him because carcasses tend to stink and because he is the quintessential plague. After some time even his most diehard supporters will get sick of him and abandon him.” Meanwhile, Fani-Kayode has predicted hard times for the PDP after the failed convention. According to him, there are dark days ahead but not for only the PDP but also the entire country. “That is “mai chanji” for you! The sooner the leaders of the PDP wake up, smell the coffee and appreciate the kind of monster they are dealing with and the sooner they elect and select leaders that are prepared to risk their lives and liberty to confront this government the better. If you want democracy and freedom you must be prepared to confront the dictator and fight for it. “Where there is no justice there can be no peace,” Fani-Kayode concluded.
