FFK reacts to old video of him criticizing Tinubu in 2015

As political campaigns begin to gather steam in Nigeria, former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain and Aviation minister, Femi Fani-Kayode has come out on social media to react to a throwback video of him launching scathing criticisms at former Lagos governor, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu which has resurfaced online.

In a lengthy post on his Facebook page, FFK, who was recently appointed as the Director of New Media on the Tinubu-Shettima Presidential Campaign Organization, slammed his critics for digging up the footage of him speaking against Buhari and Tinubu while campaigning for Goodluck Jonathan in Abuja during the runup to the 2015 presidential elections. The former minister went on to insist that peddling such a video on social media will not help opposition camps and their presidential candidates against the APC because old things have passed away.

“Playing old videos and press conferences of mine from 2015 criticizing and condemning Bola Ahmed Tinubu (BAT) will not help your candidate. We are in 2022, and not 2015. I was on the other side then and today I am on this side. Old things have passed away: behold all things are new.

Whether you like it or not, I am for BAT and I will stand with him till the end just like I did with GEJ and OBJ years ago. PDP is dead and APC is alive,” the former minister wrote.
