A former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode has issued a serious warning to Babachir Lawal, a former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF.
This followed his recent remarks about Yoruba people.
Babachir had in an interview this week, claimed that Yorubas cannot be trusted.
According to him, if you participate in a meeting where 99% are from the tribe, they will likely finish the discussion in their language.
Babachir added that, “The problem with the Yoruba is that when you support them and they win, they behave as if they have subdued you. They will not count your support.”
But writing on X on Wednesday, Fani-Kayode said: “I advise you to be very careful with your words and your characterisation of an entire race, my dear brother Babachir Lawal.
“You know I have a soft spot for you, but attacking the Yoruba race does not strengthen your case. It diminishes you, weakens your arguement, and destroys your credibility.”
Fani-Kayode also reminded Babachir that President Bola Tinubu nominated him for the SGF position in the late Muhammadu Buhari’s government.
