Femi Fani-Kayode, former Aviation
Minister, has condemned President Muhammadu Buhari’s planned visit to South
Africa, following the xenophobic attack on Nigerians.
Fani-Kayode described Buhari’s
planned trip as an “insult” to Nigerians.
Buhari will depart Abuja on Wednesday on a three-day state visit to the Republic
of South Africa.
According to a statement by
Buhari’s spokesperson, Garba Shehu, this followed an invitation by President
Cyril Ramaphosa.
The statement added that the
meeting is to discuss the welfare of Nigerians and find common ground for building
harmonious relations with their hosts.
However, Fani-Kayode insisted
that Buhari should have rejected the invitation extended to him by Ramaphosa,
following the killing of Nigerians.
In a tweet, the former Minister
wrote: “A President does not reward a foreign power that has just slaughtered
his citizens with impunity with a state visit.
“@MBuhari’s visit to South Africa
is inappropriate and an insult to the Nigerian people.This is yet another 1st
in the ignoble hall of infamy and shame for Nigeria.”
maybe he don't value the citizens of nigeria,, how can he go, a person kill your children instead of him coming to you he is telling you to come ,,,
