PEPT: ‘They want military takeover, interim govt’ – Fani-Kayode
Former Aviation minister, Femi Fani Kayode has aired his views on claims that the legal team of Tinubu/Shettima wrote the judgement of the Presidential Election Petition Court which was delivered last Wednesday.
It was also alleged that the President’s legal team received a copy of the judgment before it was formally delivered.
The former Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, chieftain described the claims as ‘simply absurd.’
According to him, this is surely the most insidious, savage, blatant and vicious attack on the integrity of the country’s judiciary.
Fani-Kayode, also noted that the coordinator of the Tinubu’s legal team, Babatunde Ogala, SAN, has already explained why the inscription and wording that made reference to the President’s lawyers at the top of a copy of the judgement came about.
According to him, those asking various questions and scrutinising the judgement were doing so in an attempt “to provoke anger, disorder, violent protests, anarchy and chaos in the land.”
He said that such people were doing this “in an attempt to engender an Arab spring/EndSARS type of operation in our country, annul the election and justify a military takeover and the formation of an Interim National Government.”
“…Simply put, that is their plan and agenda but they will surely fail,” the former minister wrote on social media platform, X.
