The reward you can get is relegation after worshiping Buhari — Fani-Kayode mocks Osinbajo

Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has reacted to reports that Vice president, Yemi Osinbajo must seek approval for agencies under his watch from president Muhammadu Buhari.

A report the Vice president deny, describing it as false and an attempt to sow the seeds of discord between him and Buhari.



He said, "The agencies in question are established by law and the Vice President has always insisted on due compliance with the enabling statutes and other established regulations."

"Depending on the particular scope of activity in question, agencies may require management approval only, at the level of the Director-General or Chief Executive Officer. In this category falls the great majority of their day-to-day activities.

"However, other activities, or procurements, with value exceeding a certain threshold, require Board approval. These may get to the agency Board chaired by the Vice President. In a few cases where Presidential approval is required, the Director-General must seek such approval from the President, through the Vice President. These rules have always guided the activities of statutory agencies and the ones under the Vice President’s supervision have always been so guided."




But reacting on his official twitter handle on Tuesday, Kayode said despite Osinbajo’s loyalty to President Buhari, the reward he could get is relegation.

Despite his constant fawning on @MBuhari, his cowardly and quisling disposition and his penchant to defend the indefensible, @ProfOsinbajo seems to have been relegated and treated with disdain and contempt by the object of his praise and the recipient of his worship...(1/2)

...First he is thrown off the Economic Team,then some parastatals are removed from his supervision and finally he is told that he must get presidential approval for any expenses he seeks to incur. This is what happens when you hold yourself out cheaply to those who despise you.
