As the ill fated crash of Saturday which left governor Patrick
Yakowa, Gen. Andrew Azazi (rtd) and four others dead in its wake,
continues to generate reaction from Nigerians, a former minister of
aviation in the Obasanjo administration, Femi Fani-Kayode, has decried
what he called ‘so much bloodshed, blood-letting and blood-spilling’ in
the land.
In a statement last night, Mr. Fani-Kayode said Nigeria has become ‘a
nation in which rulers pay homage to and make open sacrifices to
satan’. He also said yesterday’s crash and the recurring air disaster
in the country was an indication that the country is plagued by
blood-sucking and relentless demons.
His full statement after the cut…
Today we have witnessed yet another tragic air crash in our nation
with the usual attendant loss of life. This is so sad. There is so much
death in this country. So many tears. So much evil. So much sadness and
so many tragedies. So many shattered dreams, broken hearts and wounded
souls. So much injustice and insensitivity. So much greed and want. So
much bloodshed, blood-letting and blood-spilling.
Welcome to Nigeria- the Federal Republic of Sadism, Failure,
Inequity, Injustice, Wickedness and Shattered Dreams. A land in which
“men of God” do not pray but instead sell the annointing and buy private
jets. A country where common decency, kindness and human compassion has
no place. A nation in which the rulers pay homage to and make open
sacrifices to satan.
A country where ignorance and mediocrity is exalted and in which
excellence and knowledge is scorned. A nation in which truth has no
place and in which those that tell it are hated and treated with
contempt. I weep for my country. May God deliver her from the
blood-sucking and relentless demons that plague her.
