Nigerians should ask APC leaders how they acquired private jets – Fani-Kayode

The director, media and publicity of the the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) campaign organisation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode on Saturday called on Nigerians to ask the All Progressives Congress (APC) leaders how they acquired their private jets.

Reacting to an allegation by the Director of Media and Publicity of the APC Presidential Campaign Organisation, Mallam Garba Shehu that the President Goodluck Jonathan administration is planning to use the Aviation Ministry to ground the private jets belonging to senior members of the APC and frustrate the party’s campaign, Fani-Kayode said that it was interesting that APC has admitted, for the first time, that their leaders own private jets.

According to him, “It is interesting that the APC has, for the very first time, admitted that some of its leaders own private jets. It will be interesting to know from the APC how these leaders who either occupied public offices or still occupy public offices acquired these jets. In fact, where did the money with which they procured the jets come from?

“And this is the APC whose leaders pretend to occupy a moral high ground and accuse everyone else except themselves of malfeasance.

“Once again, it is clear that the APC leaders have become prisoners of their own delusions and they are being held captive by their own hallucinations. This is a clear case of extreme paranoia.

“They are running under the bed when nobody is chasing them. There are no plans to clamp down on anybody in the opposition. Our only plan is to humiliate them before the Nigerian people on March 28 by giving them a crushing defeat.”
