A former minister of Aviation,
Femi Fani-Kayode, has blasted Femi Adesina over a statement concerning the
Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim Idris’ alleged disobedience to President
Muhammadu Buhari’s orders.
The Presidential spokesperson had
said it remains an allegation that the Inspector General of Police, Ibrahim
Idris, failed to heed President Muhammadu Buhari’s directive to relocate to
Benue.
Recall that the IGP was ordered
by President Buhari to relocate to Benue shortly after the January killings in
the state.
But the IGP was said to have
spent less than a day in the state before moving to Nasarawa.
But during a visit to Benue on
Monday, the president said he was unaware the IGP failed to heed his order.
Adesina, while reacting to the
development said Buhari had no knowledge of what happened, adding that the
president leaves you once he gives instructions.
He was quoted saying “The IG of
Police can disobey President Buhari depending on the situation because he is answerable
to the Police Service Commission, Buhari and Minister of interior.
“It’s in the public domain that
he went from Benue to Nasarawa but nobody knew that he did not spend a night in
Benue.I’m aware of it but I did not know the length of time he stayed in Benue
before moving to Nasarawa.
“The president may not know
everything. He didn’t know that the IGP allegedly left Benue after one day but
he got to know yesterday. So there are some things you can’t hide forever. So
yes, the president may not know everything.”
Reacting, Fani-Kayode said
Adesina has lost his mind.
He wrote on his Twitter page “The
I-G of Police can disobey President Buhari depending on the situation because
he is answerable to the Police Service Commission”- Femi Adesina, Channels TV.
“It is clear that, like Vice
President Yemi Osinbajo, Femi Adesina has lost his mind.
“Villa curse at work!
Their cases are beyond redemption. Yoruba phraseology has it this way: Aja to ma sonu ko ki gbo free ode.
