… Says “We are in a season of Political consultations”
Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has denied joining the All Progressive Congress, APC.
Fani-Kayode, a Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, chieftain in a mail to Pointblanknews.com, said, “Though we have had meetings across party lines and we are in a season of political consultation, I have not left the PDP.
But Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State, in a virile video said Fani-Kayode had defected to the APC. Bello disclosed this while speaking to journalists after revalidating his APC membership in Okene. The governor said Fani-Kayode personally approached him with a request to join the party.
He said, “Our brother and friend, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, has joined our party in good faith. He is joining our party to come and add his own positive energy and make contribution into ensuring that APC is a party to beat.
“Remember that Chief Femi Fani-Kayode was a foundation member of this great party. Due to misunderstanding, he decided to port elsewhere, now he has decided to join our party, approached me, and by the mandate given to me by the party, I must not segregate or discriminate against any individual.”
The former minister had on Monday met with the Yobe State Governor and Chairman of the APC Caretaker/Extraordinary Convention Planning Committee (CECPC), Mai Mala Buni and Kogi State Governor, Yahaya Bello at Buni’s guest house in Abuja.
