Angry Fani-Kayode Lashes Out At The EU Over Indicting Election Report, Calls them Genocidal Offenders
The Oasis Reporters
July 6, 2023
Nigeria’s one time Aviation minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode @realFFK has tweeted strongly against the mention he got in The EU report on Nigeria’s 2023 general elections.
“Before they assail and afflict us with their self-serving, self-seeking, hypocritical, nauseating, infantile, irritating and inconsequential “election monitors report”, the EU and its member states should tender an unreserved apology for the unspeakable atrocities that they committed against the people of Africa over the last 200 years.
In case they have forgotten, permit me to remind them of just a few.
The Germans committed genocide in Namibia.
The Belgians committed genocide in Congo.
The French commited genocide in Algeria.
The Dutch committed genocide in South Africa.
The Spanish committed genocide in Equitorial Guinea and Morocco.
The Portugese committed genocide in Angola and Mozambique.
The British (though no longer a member of the EU) committed genocide in Kenya and South Africa.
Hundreds of millions of Africans were subjected to ethnic cleansing, mass murder, slavery and total subjugation by the Europeans in the 19th and 20th century.
When a European accuses we Africans of being brutal and barbaric, of committing all manner of mindless atrocities against one another and of being a bunch of fraudulent and dishonest election-riggers they forget to mention the fact that, if true, we must have learnt such callousness, wickedness, barbarity and roguish traits from them. History proves that.
Their report deserves to be in one place and one place alone: the bottom of a dustbin!
(FFK)”

Teddy Ezike says, Typical “argumentum ad hominem”. That is instead of arguing against the facts one resorts to arguing against the personality. Locally we term it attacking the messenger instead of the message !

NEFERTITI @firstladyship says that
The EU budgeted a whopping €39M for INEC and that Election.
“When you read the first paragraph of their Report, you will understand why they are unbiased. INEC wasted a massive amount of goodwill and resources.
The EU Report gave a bloody nose to BAT’s illegitimacy. APC are running helter-skelter”.

Festus Keyamo & FFK are on page 92 of the EU Report, for spreading FAKE NEWS. The EU has the screenshot of @fkeyamo’s FAKE NEWS. This is so messy; a huge embarrassment to the legal profession. A Senior Advocate of Nigeria should not be caught spreading FAKE NEWS anyhow pic.twitter.com/iQ7zlT5dfR
Imagine the humongous amount of money that the EU budgeted for Nigeria’s election.
Some critics welcome their money or believe taking their money is ok, yet reject their transparency criticisms.

Do you now understand why INEC & the Government must be held accountable? pic.twitter.com/1WyENamOya
The EU’s extraordinary report recently released ( which has been mentioned in the ongoing Presidential Election Petitions Tribunal) continues to garner comments in the country and people are heartened that in the EU, there is fury when corruption is uncovered because, “above all, it is a betrayal of trust. We trust our politicians and public servants to act in the public interest, and when it is found they have not, we are rightfully outraged”, according to Adam Graycar, Professor of Public Policy, University of Adelaide who was writing on corruption in Australia.
Femi Fani-Kayode has probably not visited the United Kingdom or the EU countries in perhaps eight long years under the out gone government of former president Muhammadu Buhari because his passport was seized and he faced investigations arising from election financing and expenditures under the government of Dr. Goodluck Jonathan that exited in 2015.
Chief Kayode had served as a minister under the regime of Chief Olusegun Obasanjo who was Nigeria’s president from 1999 to 2007.
