A former Ekiti State governor, Ayodele Fayose, has claimed that Femi Fani-Kayode will not leave the opposition party.
According to Fayose, Fani-Kayode is a dogged fighter, who will gain nothing by joining the ruling All Progressive Congress (APC).
Fayose said instead of joining the APC, he would rather go and be a doting husband.
His words: “I am 100 per cent sure FFK is going nowhere. I have spoken to FFK and I am sure he is not going. If he goes to APC, he would be dead politically as a frontline Nigerian.
“Although he is not a day-to-day politician, he is dogged and he is a fighter. I have asked him and he said it is far from it.”
Fani-Kayode has been trailed by a defection speculation following a meeting he had with the Kogi State governor, Yahaya Bello and other APC stakeholders.
Meanwhile, Salihu Lukman, the Director-General of the Progressive Governors’ Forum (PGF), has said the defection of Fani-Kayode to the APC was stalled due to the strong internal democratic culture of the party.
Lukman, who spoke on Friday, February 12, in a statement obtained said Fani-Kayode “was not welcome to join APC because he doesn’t have the values required to be a member.”
According to him, the former aviation minister tried to manipulate some leaders of the APC but it was botched based on the ground of moral ethics and values.
