This simply shows that Mr Wilson Uwujaren lacks the basic<br \/>\ncapacity to run an office as simple as that of an organisation\u2019s<br \/>\nspokesperson.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cApart from being ridiculous and childish, we find Uwujaren\u2019s claim that<br \/>\nthe concerns we raised in that statement was \u2018dubious and attention<br \/>\nseeking alarm\u2019 as not only unintelligent and pernicious but also a<br \/>\nreflection of the organization\u2019s staffing capacity which we consider as<br \/>\nlargely perfunctory.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose who wish to verify our concerns can visit the Abuja Head Office of<br \/>\nEFCC and find out things for themselves rather than rely on a spokesperson<br \/>\nwhose verification processes of events in their Abuja Head Office is<br \/>\nobviously based on hearsay.\u201d \u201cWe urge members of the public to<br \/>\ndiscountenance the purported rebuttal and treat is as a product of<br \/>\ndisinformation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhile we concede that indeed Fani-Kayode and Obanikoro shared jokes<br \/>\ntogether <span class=\"aBn\" tabindex=\"0\" data-term=\"goog_400192609\"><span class=\"aQJ\">on Monday<\/span><\/span>, the incident in question happened the<br \/>\npreviousSaturday. Unless Uwujaren wished that Fani-Kayode should not have<br \/>\nbeen revived, we see no reason why he should not share jokes with anyone<br \/>\nthe following <span class=\"aBn\" tabindex=\"0\" data-term=\"goog_400192610\"><span class=\"aQJ\">Monday<\/span><\/span>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe jokes he shared not only with Obanikoro but also with many around him<br \/>\nincluding operatives is only a reflection of the fact that Fani-Kayode has<br \/>\nremained his usual self despite being persecuted.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHowever and once again, we call on all those who have anything against<br \/>\nChief Fani-Kayode to follow the due process and keep a date with him in<br \/>\ncourt as he is very much willing to put an end, through legal means, to<br \/>\nthis charade baptized as anti-corruption fight rather than them using<br \/>\nextra-judicial means and tactics to dehumanize him simply because of his<br \/>\nfrightening yet very popular and truthful opinions on the state of the<br \/>\nnation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLastly, we reiterate our earlier position that no harm must come the way<br \/>\nof the former minister who has come to be seen by millions of the<br \/>\noppressed, the downtrodden and all victims of tyranny and executive<br \/>\nhighhandedness as a symbol of truth, hope and liberation.\u201d<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FORMER Spokesperson to ex- President Goodkuck Jonathan\u2019s campaign Organisation, Chief Femi Fani- Kayode has said that the spokesperson for the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) Wilson Uwujaren, lied in&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":45382,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-54029","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
