This is false and, needless to say, Chief Fani-Kayode has never and would never say such a thing or harbor such a horrendous and heartless view.\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1436321674001_11550\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1436321674001_11542\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">For the last few years Chief Fani-Kayode has been one of the loudest and most strident voices against Boko Haram in Nigeria and he has continously and courageously condemned them. He has also continously expressed his grave concerns about the barbarity and sheer evil that they have unleashed on the Nigerian people and he has constantly expressed his condolences to and support for the families whose loved ones have been murdered by them over the years.<\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1436321674001_11540\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1436321674001_11541\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div id=\"yui_3_16_0_1_1436321674001_11551\" style=\"text-align: justify;\">For Premium Times or anyone else to allege that Chief Fani-Kayode wrote that the Nigerian people &#8221;deserve Boko Haram&#8221; under any circumstances is not just mischievous but it is also irresponsible and malicious. It is a wicked lie which is designed to endanger the life and reputation of Chief Fani-Kayode and to subject him to public odium, ridicule, outrage and opprobium.<\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">We challenge anyone that doubts the veracity of our contention to go and read Chief Fani-Kayode&#8217;s write-up on his Facebook wall because it is still there.
