Earlier today, a former minister of Aviation,
Femi-Fani Kayode wrote a long letter to Yemi Osinbajo, the
presidential running mate of Gen. Muhammad Buhari.
Yemi Osinbajo is one of the highly revered Pastors at the Redeemed Christian Church of God.
Not mincing words, Femi-Fani Kayode who is known for running his
mouth on National issues, sarcastically congratulated the All
Progressive Party president candidates and also robed in the Redeemed
Christian Church of God.
In the long read, the former minister verbally hit Yemi Osinbajo in 10 different ways.
1. I have known Yemi for a number of years and I must say that he is
not only a very pleasant and civilised person with a warm and gentle
disposition but he is also a cerebal lawyer with a brilliant mind. I
have immense respect for him. Yet sadly ever since I heard about his
nomination and announcement as Buhari’s running mate I have felt nothing
but sheer pity for him and a deep sense of pathos.
2. Woe unto the children of light that secretly delight in darkness
and that seek to thwart the counsel of God for their nation by joining
hands with the sons of Boko and the daughters of Haram. The bible says
”what fellowship is there between light and darkness?” It says ”what
does God have to do with Belial?” It says ”what profiteth a man to gain
the world and lose his soul?”.
3. A respected Pastor of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, a
devout and committed Christian and an intellectually-sound, well-bred
and well educated Professor of Law accepts to be running mate to a
closet fundamentalist, a bloodthirsty, cruel and murderous military
dictator and a die-hard believer in the philosophy of ”born to rule”?
This is serious.
4. A gifted servant of God who is a favored spiritual son of Rev.
Enoch Adeboye, the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church Of
God has jumped into bed with one of the most notorious troublers of the
faith and one of the most consistent enemies of democracy and Nigeria?
This is very sad.
5. Rev. Enoch Adeboye is undoubtedly one of God’s greatest and most
respected generals on the planet and one of the Church’s most humble and
best-loved precious gems, yet one of his spiritual sons has surely let
him, and indeed the Kingdom of God, down by choosing to play ”man
Friday” and second fiddle to an individual that represents everything
that is troubling, unsettling and repugnant to the modern world and to
the 21st century? What a tragedy.
6. A learned Professor of Law and a senior member of the Nigerian bar
who is the leading authority on the law of evidence and who has written
numerous books on that topic chooses to play number two to a man that
failed all his exams at military college and that never went to a decent
school or to any university? Jumping Jehoshaphat.
7. It is only in Nigeria that this sort of thing can happen. Poor
Yemi. Look at what the Haramites have done to him and look at what they
have reduced him to. Is there anything that these creatures from hell
will not do? Is there anyone that they will not use and is there any
norm that they will not defile, pervert, debase, violate and corrupt in
their ignoble quest for power and as a consequence of their insatiable
lusts and manifest greed?
8. Ignorance and lack of knowledge is a terrible affliction but in
this context it is not only terrible but also very dangerous. Buhari’s
choice of a Christian Pastor as his running mate means nothing and
changes nothing about him or his entrenched views and ancient mindset.
9. It rather provides clear evidence of his sheer desperation to win
power at all costs and it is a reflection of his obvious and deep-seated
deceit. Let the truth be told even though the heavens may fall:
Christian Vice President or no Christian Vice President, Buhari’s heart
remains as dark as ever.
10. We shall meet him in the field: let God’s will be done.
