Charles Soludo is a confused Nigerian – Femi Fani-Kayode, responds to Soludo's article

Responding to attack on President Jonathan by Soludo, Femi Fani-Kayode described Professor Soludo as a confused Nigerian and one who has lost touch with reality.

According to the Campaign Organisation, President Goodluck Jonathan will not only run next month, but would win the polls.

See Excerpts detailed:

“I read Charles Soludu’s contribution to the debate with amusement. I will be gentle with him because I have a soft spot for him. He has criticised the President, his government and
his handling of the economy.

“Meanwhile Nigeria has just won
the prestigious award of being
designated as the largest economy in Africa and this has happened under the watch of President Goodluck Jonathan and no-one else. Should any right-thinking person who has the nation’s interest at heart be complaining about that?
Needless to say my friend and
brother Charles Soludo is confused and conflicted. He seems to have lost touch with reality and this is what often happens when you spend too much time with the Buharists.

“The truth is that Soludo is far
too educated, civilised and advanced to be in the opposition.

He belongs to the modern age and not the dark ages. I pray that sooner than later he comes to his senses and he sees the light. One thousand
Muhammadu Buhari’s cannot
match one Goodluck Jonathan in
terms of tolerance, compassion,
performance or output. Buhari
cannot even begin to understand
the complex nature of the economy or the immense problems that we are facing in this country whilst Jonathan not only understands them but is also making a gallant effort at solving them.

“I respect Charles Soludo immensely but I believe that he
got it quite wrong here. He is in
error and he needs to sit up,
reconsider his views and review
his unsavoury and disrespectful
contribution.

“To say that the President should not run in this election and that he should throw in the towel is absurd and self- depreciating. It is a
manifestation of the morbid fear
of failure and defeat that the
leaders of the opposition are all
suffering from.

Whether Soludo and his friends like it or not, not only will President Goodluck Jonathan run in this election, but he will also win and he will do so convincingly. ”
