Femi Fani Kayode Writes Open Letter to Osibajo, says He is Too Clean to be Buhari's Vice

Femi Fani Kayode has written an open
letter to Yemi Osinbajo who has been
picked as Buhari’s running mate in
2015.

According to Mr Fani, Yemi
Osinbajo is a well-educated man who
shouldn’t be in the same party with the
likes of Buhari, talk less of being his
running mate in the presidential race.
What has light got to do with darkness?
These and many more where the
questions Fani asked Osinbajo in this
open letter.

Please read below;

“I am glad that the APC eventually took
my advice and saw the wisdom in not
fielding a muslim/muslim ticket for the
2015 Presidential election even though I
hear that, right up till the last minute,
they almost did.

I congratulate my friend and brother
Professor Yemi Osinbajo on his
nomination as the Vice Presidential
candidate of the APC and running mate
to General Muhammadu Buhari.
I have known Yemi for a number of
years and I must say that he is not only a
very pleasant and civilised person with a
warm and gentle disposition but he is
also a cerebal lawyer with a brilliant
mind. I have immense respect for him.

Yet sadly ever since I heard about his
nomination and announcement as
Buhari’s running mate I have felt
nothing but sheer pity for him and a
deep sense of pathos. My counsel and
words for him are as follows:
Woe unto the children of light that
secretly delight in darkness and that seek
to thwart the counsel of God for their
nation by joining hands with the sons of
Boko and the daughters of Haram.
The bible says ”what fellowship is there
between light and darkness?” It says
”what does God have to do with Belial?”
It says ”what profiteth a man to gain the
world and lose his soul?”.

A respected Pastor of the Redeemed
Christian Church of God, a devout and
committed Christian and an
intellectually-sound, well-bred and well
educated Professor of Law accepts to be
running mate to a closet fundamentalist,
a bloodthirsty, cruel and murderous
military dictator and a die-hard believer
in the philosophy of ”born to rule”? This
is serious.

A gifted servant of God who is a favored
spiritual son of Rev. Enoch Adeboye, the
General Overseer of theRedeemed
Christian Church Of God has jumped into
bed with one of the most notorious
troublers of the faith and one of the most
consistent enemies of democracy and
Nigeria? This is very sad.

Rev. Enoch Adeboye is undoubtedly one
of God’s greatest and most respected
generals on the planet and one of the
Church’s most humble and best-loved
precious gems, yet one of his spiritual
sons has surely let him, and indeed the
Kingdom of God, down by choosing to
play ”man Friday” and second fiddle to
an individual that represents everything
that is troubling, unsettling and
repugnant to the modern world and to
the 21st century? What a tragedy.
A learned Professor of Law and a senior
member of the Nigerian bar who is the
leading authority on the law of evidence
and who has written numerous books on
that topic chooses to play number two to
a man that failed all his exams at
military college and that never went to a
decent school or to any university?
Jumping Jehoshaphat.

It is only in Nigeria that this sort of thing
can happen. Poor Yemi. Look at what
the Haramites have done to him and
look at what they have reduced him to. Is
there anything that these creatures from
hell will not do?
Is there anyone that they will not use
and is there any norm that they will not
defile, pervert, debase, violate and
corrupt in their ignoble quest for power
and as a consequence of their insatiable
lusts and manifest greed?
The truth is that each and everyone one
of us, including my friend Yemi, will
ultimately have to answer to God for the
choices that we make and we must live
with the consequences of those choices.

It is no wonder that the Redeemed
Christian Church of God has
disassociated itself from a false claim
that the Church and, by implication, Rev. Adegboye himself, was supporting the
Buhari/Osinbajo ticket.

Thankfully they have come out to say
clearly and categorically that this is not
so.

One can always trust Adegboye to do
and say the right thing because he is a
man that is truly ”after God’s heart”.
Yet the denial of an endorsement and
tacit support from his Church is just the
first of many shockers and unwelcome
surprises that Yemi will be served with
in the next few weeks.

He will get shock
after shock and surprise after surprise
until the battle is over and circumstances
compel him to go back to his very
lucrative legal practice.
Yet before he does that he should learn a
thing or two from one of his esteemed
colleagues and yet another Pastor of the
Redeemed Christian Church of God, the
courageous Pastor Bosun Emmanuel.

Bosun said the following words in his
famous sermon titled ‘The Nigerian
Church’ which went viral just a few
months ago.
He said, ”woe be unto any believer who
joins hands with the enemies of God in
an attempt to bury the Church and
destroy the gospel”.

This was a timely
admonition and these are strong and
wise words from a true servant of God
who is under no illusion about what is
going on in the politics of Nigeria and
who is brave enough to say it as it is.

Yet whether we choose to heed Bosun’s
words or not I am absolutely certain of
one thing: those that have aligned with
the servants of satan and the children of
darkness and that seek to thwart God’s
counsel for our nation shall not prevail.
Boko Haram abducted 185 women in
Borno state on December 18th and they
killed no less than 52 innocent people.
Despite that some people are still
supporting Buhari and his army of
desperate Haramites? What a people,
what a country.
Those that say that Buhari has changed
simply because he chose a Pastor as his
running mate are ignorant.

Did he not have a Pastor as his running mate in his
last outing in 2011?

Did he not still say
that it was his intention to ”spread
sharia throughout the country” and that
”an attack on Boko Haram is an attack
on the north”?
Did he not oppose a state of emergency
in the north eastern states and say that it
was unfair for the military to kill Boko Haram members? Did he not say that
instead of killing them they should
forgive them, pamper them and treat
them in the same way that the Niger
Delta militants were treated?

Did the spokesman of his party Alhaji Lai
Mohammed not say that the proscription
of Boko Haram by the Federal
Government was ‘’unjust’’ and
‘’unconstitutional’’? How does the fact
that Buhari has opted for a Christian
running mate change any of these
things?
In any case he only opted for a Christian
running mate because he was compelled
to do so as a consequence of the hue and
cry that the prospect of a muslim/muslim
ticket had already started to generate.

Are those that cite the fact that he has a
Christian running mate as evidence of
his new-found love for Christians aware
of the fact that during the American civil
war a small, ignorant, misguided and
deluded group of negro slaves actually
fought on the side of the southern
confederate forces in an attempt to keep
slavery in place?
Did that suggest that the leaders of the
southern confederate ‘’secession’’ states
suddenly changed their minds and fell in
love with the blacks that they had
enslaved and treated like animals?
Is Buhari’s claim of not being partial to
his own hausa-fulani tribe not a little
far-fetched? Did he not lead a northern
delegation to Alhaji Lam Adesina, the late Governor of Oyo state, just a few years ago when some Fulani herdsmen
were slaughtering Yoruba farmers on
their own land and ask him ‘’why are
YOUR people killing MY people?’’
Apparently Buhari believed that the
aggressors that had invaded the land and
farms of others and that killed all the
occupants had a right to do so simply
because they were fulani. Yet some
people still claim that the man is not a tribalist.

Ignorance and lack of knowledge is a terrible affliction but in this context it is not only terrible but also very
dangerous.

Buhari’s choice of a
Christian Pastor as his running mate
means nothing and changes nothing
about him or his entrenched views and ancient mindset.

It rather provides clear evidence of his
sheer desperation to win power at all
costs and it is a reflection of his obvious
and deep-seated deceit. Let the truth be
told even though the heavens may fall:

Christian Vice President or no Christian
Vice President, Buhari’s heart remains as
dark as ever.
We shall meet him in the field: let God’s
will be done.”
