The All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Organisation (APCCO) has threatened to sue presidential spokesperson Femi Fani-Kayode, for claiming that General Muhammadu Buhari is getting funding for his election campaign from terrorist groups, such as the outlawed Boko Haram, Al-Qaeda and ISIS.

In a statement in Abuja, Saturday, the APCPCO accused the Director of Media of the PDP’s presidential campaign of perpetuating the religious politics that his principal, President Goodluck Jonathan is well known for, giving him one week to retract his defamatory comments or face the law.

“Never before in Nigeria’s history has the issue of religion been applied to such sinister purposes as we have seen during the years of President Jonathan’s government,” said Malam Garba Shehu, Director of Media and Publicity of the APCPCO. “When all fails, they whip out the religious card.”

However, Malam Shehu expressed relief that Nigerians were no more being fooled by what he called “this PDP game”. According to him, General Buhari has transcended all the religious smears and, together with his running mate, Yemi Osinbajo, who is a respected pastor, has been able to show the Nigerian people that Nigeria’s growth and development is not about religion, but about a genuine desire to change the lot of the country’s citizens and move the entire nation forward.

“A majority of the world’s Muslims, including Buhari, do not approve of the Al-Qaeda, and being Muslim does not translate into being pro-ISIS,” Malam Shehu added. “Again and again, Buhari has shown commitment to ridding our country of these vermin who claim to be killing in the name of Allah, but who, in actual fact, are messengers of Satan.”

The statement gave advanced warning that when the APC takes the matter of Fani-Kayode’s baseless and libellous claims to the court next week, the Party will ask that the PDP spokesperson’s international passport be impounded by way of injunction.

“There are some campaigners who obviously intend to escape from Nigeria after the handover of government from Jonathan to Buhari on May 29. That must be the reason why they can boldly make many of the reckless, irresponsible and defamatory statements that they have been mouthing off so flippantly throughout this campaign season. Either that or these people do not believe in our country’s judicial system. They don’t believe that one day; it will catch up with them.”

The APCCO further warned that it would not extend the seven-day deadline given to Fani-Kayode to retract his false allegations.

Let peace reign in Nigeria. All we want is a peaceful elections in all parts of the country. Nobody should resort to killing when results are not in his/her favour. God bless Nigeria. #NeverAgain

I wonder why the APC is taking Fani Kayode seriously. Even my 4 year old cousin knows he is a liar. I asked him yesterday to tell me who a liar is to my surprise he said Fani... Kayode!.

The guy is a schizophrenic fiend!.

Like I said, anyone who truly believes FFK's rantings truly needs brain surgery.

This is a man who openly came out and said he slept with a former most beautiful girl. Any man who can do that should never be taken seriously.

I wonder how FFK will bury his head in shame when Buhari becomes the president.

Dont mind dt man,nobody takes him serious any longer.Good move anyway.
#GMB all the way

If FFK should retract his statement,Buhari should first of all disconnect from Boko haram,ISIS and Al Qaeda.Buhari cannot deny being a part of them.
