Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, says unless President Buhari "retraces his steps in presiding over the affairs of the nation, there will be no Nigeria left by 2023."
Femi Fani Kayode stated this in a post shared on his Facebook page this evening. His post comes days after former President Olusegun Obasanjo opined that Nigeria is slowly becoming a failed and divided state under the Buhari-led administration.
In 2015 I said Buhari WOULD divide Nigeria, you didn't believe me.
In 2017 I said Buhari HAD divided Nigeria, you didn't believe me.
In 2019 I said Buhari had pushed Nigeria to the BRINK of disintegration, you didn't believe me.
Today I say unless Buhari retraces his steps and we build bridges between ourselves there will be no Nigeria left by 2023, you do not believe me. At every point over the last 5 years, my words have proved to be prophetic, I have been proved right and I have been vindicated. Those that doubt my admonitions, counsel and words do so at their own peril and frankly, it takes NOTHING from me one way or the other. It is the message that matters and not what you think of the messenger. The bitter truth is that the greatest catalyst for the disintegration of Nigeria and the most useful and prized gift to those that believe Nigeria ought to break up into pieces is Muhammadu Buhari. He has served their purpose very well because he has not only totally divided Nigeria and destroyed our country's sense of national cohesion and unity but he has also butchered her, hacked her into pieces, and buried her in many different locations! A precious egg called Nigeria was placed into his hands in 2015 but he has crushed its shell, broken its spirit, and destroyed its soul. Today you see hundreds of thousands of sons and daughters of the South West proudly marching and demonstrating in the streets of the capitals of many of the western powers demanding for the right of self-determination and the establishment of the sovereign and the independent state of Oduduwa. Today you see millions of IPOB youths all over the world defying the odds, risking their lives and liberty, and demanding a referendum in the South East and the establishment of the Republic of Biafra. Today you see emboldened, fiery and courageous men like Obadiah Mailafia fearlessly speaking up for the millions of people in the Middle Belt who have been subjected to the indifference, callousness, wickedness, tyranny, and subjugation of this Government. Today the people of the core north itself are speaking out in anger and saying "enough of this barbaric carnage" that they are witnessing on a daily basis in their farms and streets. If these matters, challenges, and agitations are not handled with sensitivity, understanding, restraint, wisdom, and care, and if the Buhari administration continues to display its characteristic impunity and disdain for the concerns, fears, and will of the people, we may be pushed over the brink and our country may well be plunged into a long, terrible and catastrophic conflict in which millions will die and no-one will win. Today in Nigeria we are no longer our brother's keeper and love, kindness, and charity to our neighbours and to one another have become scarce commodities. Sadly we have become a failed state of shattered dreams sitting on the brink of yet another civil war. For this alone, history will judge President Muhammadu Buhari harshly and posterity will not be kind to him.''
