Addressing the press in Enugu on Thursday,
Okereke touched upon the subject of Fani-
Kayode’s sharp criticism of the incumbent
president.
An attack on President Buhari is an attack
directed to Nigerians since the president is a
corporate personality, Okereke said.
“Fani-Kayode has been involved in the
government since 1999 to 2015 and
somebody like him should not be talking. He
was a minister of culture and tourism, and a
minister for aviation. As a minister, Fani-
Kayode could not renovate one single airport.
Can he tell us this is his achievement as
minister of aviation? Can he tell us this is his
achievement as minister of culture and
tourism?

“He was special adviser to Obasanjo. When
he became the spokesman of the Jonathan
campaign organization, what was his
achievement? If he had capacity as a media
person he would have found out the fault
and the problem while Jonathan could not
win the election. So I look at him as a
failure,” Okereke said.
“President Buhari is not his mate and he
never contested the same position with him.
They had the power, they couldn’t manage
the power and power has been given to
someone else”, Okereke added.
