Femi Fani-Kayode, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has issued a warning to those wishing for the death of the President-elect, Bola Tinubu, before his inauguration on May 29.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that he stated that such individuals would face their demise long before Tinubu.
In a tweet, the former Aviation Minister reaffirmed that Tinubu would be inaugurated as planned on May 29.
He further cautioned those who may be seeking to prevent Tinubu’s inauguration, likening their fate to that of Pharaoh.
According to Fani-Kayode: “The Nigerian people have spoken and the Deep State conspiracy to stop Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu from becoming President failed long ago.
“We are well past that stage and you cannot stop a moving train.
“Those that have hardened their hearts and that have refused to accept God’s will and admonition to let Asiwaju and the Nigerian people go shall, like Pharaoh, perish before our very eyes.
“Those that are filled with bitterness, hate, envy, fury and rage and that seek to pursue us into the Red Sea as we make our way to the Promise Land shall be drowned by it.
“Whether they like it or not, God-willing, the President-elect SHALL be sworn in on May 29th and those that want him dead or wish him ill shall see the grave long before he does.
“This is the doing of the Lord and it is marvellous in our sight.”
Fani-Kayode made this remark in response to Cardinal John Onaiyekan’s call for a shift in the date of the presidential inauguration.
The former Archbishop of the Archdiocese of Abuja had suggested the need for the event to be moved in order to accommodate a broader representation of political parties.
