Femi Fani-Kayode yesterday
congratulated Gen. Buhari for his victory at the just concluded presidential
election. Fani who spoke to journalists in Abuja yesterday said his attack on
Buhari and APC as a whole had nothing to do with his person, but he was only
doing his job. The attacks were never personal he said.

“There was absolutely nothing
personal as regards this Directorate or myself. I had nothing personal against
anybody. I was simply doing my job for which I have no regrets and I wish them
well and I sincerely hope that they will take Nigeria to a level that we can
all be proud of”. Continue…

On congratulating Buhari he said;

“We start by saying that we
commend and we congratulate General Muhammadu Buhari for winning this election.
We also wish to commend our President, President Goodluck Jonathan, for having
the courage to concede that he has lost the election at the earliest moment and
also for being able to stand up and rise above party politics and being able to
speak like a statesman”.

He also prayed for President
Jonathan and Buhari;

“May God grant each and everyone
of us peace. May He watch over our nation. May He guide our President for the
next two months whilst he is still in power and thereafter and may He guide and
lead the President-elect, General Muhammadu Buhari, in the herculean task that
lies ahead for him.

“My prayer is that he brings our
nation together, heals the wounds and that he builds the bridges in terms of
religion, ethnicity and region that he needs to build in order for us to make
Nigeria a better place and to ensure that Nigeria becomes a great country that
she is destined to be,” he said.
