Former Aviation Minister, Femi
Fani-Kayode, on Wednesday lambasted President Muhammadu Buhari for claiming
that he was removed as the then Head of State for attempting to fight
corruption.
Buhari had made the claim while
commissioning the new office block of the Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission, EFCC, in Abuja, yesterday.
But reacting , the Peoples
Democratic Party, PDP, chieftain insisted that Buhari was equally corrupt.
Fani-Kayode, who took to his
Twitter handle, wondered what could be more corrupt than the alleged coup
staged by Buhari in 1983 against a “democratically-elected government.”
He wrote, “Yesterday @MBuhari
lamented about how he was detained for 3 years in 1985 for “fighting
corruption”. He forgot that he staged a coup d’etat in 1983, toppled a
democratically-elected govt. and stole the Presidency and entire treasury. What
could be more corrupt than that?
“If his coup had failed, he would
have been court-martialled, tied to the stake and shot for military
insurrection, mutiny and treason and not just put under house arrest for 3
years.
“He should count himself lucky
and not talk about history because he has much to answer for.”
