Femi Fani-Kayode Gets Rewards for Love of Unity

Femi Fani-Kayode, a lawyer and former Minister of Aviation, means different things to different people.

While some appreciate his brilliance and outspokenness, some others see him simply as controversial.  However, what you cannot take away from him is his loyalty; he respects the sanctity of friendship and never takes friendship for granted.

If you ever think of compiling a list of Nigerians who deserve commendations for their love for the unity of Nigeria, this smooth-talking lawyer will certainly make the list with a generous mention. He considers every Nigerian as one. He holds the unity of the country paramount to his heart.

This we gathered has been one of the things working for him and his rising profile.

He is powerful, influential, high-wired connections with friends across the four corners of the country.

Oftentimes, he has told anyone that cared to listen to his belief in the virtues of courage, loyalty and faith in God. His belief in loyalty to country, family, friends and political party. His patriotism  and  belief in loyalty to Nigeria, and also his belief in the unity of Nigeria. The Osun State-born lawyer is a detribalised Nigerian whose circle of friends cuts across the Who- is-who in high society, including captains of industry, monarchs, politicians, socialites and celebrities that he has built over the years.

Perhaps, this explains the frenzy and buzz currently around his circles of friends when he was nominated as an ambassador. Many of his friends that have benefited from his goodwill couldn’t hide their excitement for him. 

Some of the notable people that spoke glowingly about Fani-Kayode last Thursday shortly after his successful screening  by the senate include Ooni of Ife, Oba Enitan Adeyeye Ogunwusi. According to the message delivered by the Sooko (Dr.) Kemade Elugbaju Sooko Omoniyi and the Ambassador Plenipotentiary to the Ooni of Ife on behalf of  the first class monarch, he congratulated the man fondly known as FFK over successful screening by the senate and also the appointment by the President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

Ooni Ogunwusi congratulated FFK on his successful screening by the Senate, acknowledging the honour bestowed upon him and the people of Ifeland.

The Kabiyesi wished him continued success and grace in his new role as Ambassador of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. He posited that Chief Femi Fani-Kayode has distinguished himself, as the lover of his people majorly from Osun State, many of whom he appointed to effectively position all the parastatals under the Aviation Ministry while serving as the Minister of Aviation. Kabiyesi is confident that FFK will do much more.

In conclusion, the Ooni is highly grateful to President Bola Tinubu for the great honour done to Fani-Kayode and asked God tp bless the president.
