Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has been labelled a traitor by the All Progressives Congress presidential campaign council (APC).
Femi Fani-Kayode, a former Minister of Aviation, stated this on Thursday in response to Dino Melaye, the spokesperson for the PDP presidential campaign council.
In an earlier statement, Melaye called APC Vice Presidential candidate Kashim Shettima a “grand commander of bandits.”
Shettima, according to the former senator representing Kogi West senatorial district, is planning to open an office for Boko Haram terrorists in Aso Rock.
In his reaction, Fani-Kayode described Atiku as a serial betrayer who has betrayed everyone he has worked with.
He claimed that the former vice president had betrayed former Presidents Olusegun Obasanjo, Musa Yar’adua, the APC, and the PDP.
Melaye’s statement against Shettima, according to Fani-Kayode, was “nonsensical words spoken on behalf of a nonsensical man.”
He said:
These are nonsensical words, spoken on behalf of a nonsensical man, who is running a nonsensical campaign.
I can tell you that Atiku Abubakar is a traitor, who continuously betrayed everybody that has worked with him, including President Obasanjo, late Gen. Yar’Adua, late President Yar’Adua, including APC and the PDP. His record of public office is a betrayal.
At the end of the day, he’ll betray PDP again. You remember, he betrayed the governors of his party. He broke his words and Dino Melaye is saying this is the man that should be President of our country. No way!
