Northern Youths under the aegis of Arewa Youths Forum, AYF, have warned former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode to stop further verbal attacks on President Muhammadu Buhari and Northern elders.<\/p>\n
AYF, in a memo warned that, the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Chieftain should be ready to face the consequences if the attacks continue.<\/p>\n
The group noted that Fani-Kayode\u2019s alleged lies against Buhari were aimed at creating tension and chaos in the country for his selfish interest.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
AYF was reacting to the former Minister\u2019s comment where he claimed that Buhari hates people of the South Eastern part of the country.<\/p>\n
In the memo signed by the National President of the Arewa Youth Forum, Alhaji Gambo Ibrahim Gujungu, the group appealed to security agencies to arrest and prosecute the former minister for inciting hatred.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
According to Gujungu, \u201cAs the umbrella organization of all Northern youths in the 19 northern states, we want to warn Femi Fani-Kayode that he should stop insulting the person of President Muhammadu Buhari and other northern leaders or be ready to face our wrath.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cAYF also wants to condemn in its entirety the recent outbursts by Fani Kayode that President Buhari said he would never forgive the Ibos. As we know that President Muhammadu Buhari is the father of the nation and his policies has shown that he means well for the country.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cWhile we condemn his move to malign the President using ethnic and religious sentiments, we want to use the opportunity to call on security operatives to call the former aviation Minister to present his facts on the said discussion or be prosecuted for incitement and causing disaffection in the country.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is because his statement can cause the breach of trust and led to crisis at a time we are building trust and working to bring all Nigerians together across the length and breath of the country.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cThe north and indeed Nigeria is at a cross road and we want to support the Stand of the Northern elders that all efforts should be geared towards retaining the presidency in the region. This is because it will engender equity and justice and go a long way to foster love and unity since the north has not enjoyed its share of power in the recent past.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cTo this end we are calling on all politicians of Northern extraction to put politics aside and face the reality on ground. Plots by other region to short charge the north of its turn in the presidency needs to be checked.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cConsequently, if by any situation President Muhammadu Buhari refuses to contest in 2019, the forum is already putting in place measures to support any party , group or individual that supports and believes in retaining the presidency in North.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cAYF believes this is not the time to sit on the fence and we use the opportunity to call on the Northern Governors to act in the over all interests of the region and not their selfish interests that many at times overrides that of the personal interests.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are hearing of our governors having secret meetings with southerners in bargaining power for their own selfish, we urge them to desist as the key to any political power in 2019 election recides with the people.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
