Removal of security chiefs, others: We’ve been vindicated – Fani-Kayode hails Tinubu

Former Aviation Minister and chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Femi Fani-Kayode, has lauded President Bola Tinubu on his political outings in the last three weeks.

The president is currently being applauded for the ongoing reforms and cleaning of the system, which has been made evident by removing some bigwigs from key positions.

Tinubu had, since his inauguration on May 29, sacked and replaced some public officeholders.

The president, last week, sacked the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Goodwin Emfiele. A few days later, the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, Abdulrasheed Bawa, was also removed.

On Monday, the president further sacked all security chiefs and named their replacement.

Reacting, FFK, in a statement on Tuesday, said the staunch supporters of Tinubu, who believed in his capability amid criticism, have been vindicated.

He said, “No leader or President in the history of our country has effected so many positive changes and reforms and appointed so many credible, decisive, courageous and effective people into key positions in his administration within THREE weeks of being sworn into office as President Bola Ahmed Tinubu (@officialABAT).

“Today, even his most ardent critics and those that bent over backwards to stop, discredit, denigrate, humiliate and destroy him during the presidential campaign are commending him.

“He has made those of us that recognised and appreciated his value and potentials, had faith in him, risked all, stood with him and fought for him proud and most importantly, we have been vindicated.

“Thanks to BAT, Nigeria now has a new lease of life and the light of God has began to dispel the thick darkness and tangible cloud of stagnation, retrograde and retrogressive policies, monumental corruption, vicious persecution, selective application of justice, abuse of power, incomprehensible incompetence and wholesale and malicious impunity that we have witnessed over the last few years”.
