Fani-Kayode backs Patience Jonathan, insists Buhari is brain dead

Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Presidential Campaign Organisation, PDPPCO, said yesterday that wife of President Goodluck Jonathan, Dame Patience Jonathan has no apology on her assessment of the presidential candidate of All Progressives Congress, APC, General Muhammadu Buhari (retd) as being “brain dead,” saying she was right.

In a statement yesterday in Abuja by the Director, Media and Publicity of PDP Campaign Organisation, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, who was responding to APC Presidential Campaign Organisation said: “The First Lady, Dame Patience Jonathan, was absolutely right.

“To say that General Buhari is ‘’brain dead’’ is an understatement and to suggest that he is suffering from dementia is nothing new.

“The First Lady has spoken in a courageous and forthright manner and, most important of all, she has spoken the bitter truth.

“Instead of crying like spoilt little brats and complaining, the APC and the Buhari Campaign Organisation should live with that bitter truth and leave her alone.

“She has every right to express herself in any way that she deems fit and she is entitled to her opinion. This is especially so given the fact that her husband, President Goodluck Jonathan, is in the Presidential race.

“Buhari’s general disdain for women and their opinion is well known. This is a man that said that he would scrap the office of the First Lady if he is elected President.

“If he is not ready to face public scrutiny and criticism for his often irresponsible, retrogressive, nonsensical and asinine views, he should quit the Presidential race and consider retiring from politics.

“Our counsel to the APC is as follows: leave the First Lady alone or prepare yourselves for a relentless verbal blitzkrieg, the likes of which you have never seen before.”

    It is a simple known fact that the human body (including the brain cells) begins to die as one ages. Mama Peace was right to classify Buhari as having a dead brain compared to a younger Jonathan or any other person of younger age.
    No wonder many people retire from active employment as they approach 60 or more years. What this means is that man productivity begins to decline as his/her increases. Nigerians cannot take this APC/Buhari nonsense.

      Bird of the same feather, what do we expect from stupid people like you. Ain’t you ashamed seeing your Dame patience disgracing the so call ‘office of the first lady’ with her unrefined English. That is an insult to womanhood, and nothing comparable but a garrage tout.

      u ar very wring mr john to say that. this happens in a situation where by a person desist from reading often or not being adventurous, the brain shrinks and this does not mean if the person is old or young i.e it happens to young people too but if u ar the type that reads very well ur brain tends to be wide and expand.
      if u don’t care i have a 94yr old lawyer who is still very active in everything and still goes to court. so it is no nonsense.
