Fani-Kayode is envious of Tinubu’s achievements - APC chieftain

A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Mr. Lateef Raji, has claimed that the Director of Media and Publicity, Peoples Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organisation, Mr. Femi Fani-Kayode, is envious of the many achievements of the National Leader of the APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. Raji, who is a former Special Adviser to former Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola, said this on Thursday. He said this while reacting to Fani-Kayode’s claim that the APC crisis showed that the North had put an end to Tinubu’s political dominance. Fani-Kayode had also said that the North would dominate Nigeria for the next four years while other geopolitical zones, including the South-West, would be forgotten under the President Muhammadu Buhari administration. Raji, however, described such a statement as misleading given the fact that Tinubu had helped produce a Yoruba man, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, as the Vice-President. “He and many others just envy Tinubu because that statement is flat. No one can take Yoruba for granted. How can we be marginalised when we hold the number two position in the country? Yoruba cannot be marginalised in anyway. “People envy Tinubu and always wish for his downfall. However, if you remember very well, these were the same people that predicted that the APC would not merge successfully. After we did, they predicted that we would not succeed at the polls but we proved them wrong. So, we will keep ignoring them,” Raji Said
