The Department of State Services, DSS, has released Femi Fani-Kayode, director of New Media and Special Projects for the APC presidential campaign council after questioning him over claims that Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the PDP met with some Service Chiefs and was plotting a ‘coup’.
Fani-Kayode who had claimed that he said or did nothing wrong was grilled for six hours by the secret service, the director of APC PCC, Bayo Onanuga said in a tweet.
“Femi Fani-Kayode released by DSS after about six hours of interrogation,” Onanuga said in a tweet.
Prior to his interrogation, Fani-Kayode had stated that, “I have nothing to hide and consequently I will present myself before the DSS this morning as I have been asked to do.
“I maintain my utter contempt for Atiku and the vermin that are around him and no matter what happens to me today or at any other time, know that as long as there is life in me I will oppose the darkness and evil that they represent.
“I am used to arrest, interrogation, detention, prosecution and so much more and have suffered these indignities on many occasions over the last 15 years.
“I have no fear: nothing moves me and only death can silence me,” Fani-Kayode reiterated.
“The most important thing now is not what happens to me but rather
achieving the noble quest to ensure the election of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as our next President.
“That is the mission that we must focus on because that is the only way to save our country. I hope that I will be at liberty and free to continue to play my role in that quest but if I am not and I am detained indefinitely or till the election is over so be it.
“In such circumstances be rest assured that I will be praying fervently for Asiwaju’s victory from the inside.
“For the record I have said or done nothing wrong or that I should not have said or done and I stand by everything that I have said or written in the past on all issues.
“It is not a crime to express my concerns about the despicable activities of Atiku who, in my view, has a hidden agenda and who is so desperate for power that he is prepared to do anything and turn the whole country upside down in order to achieve it.
“May God protect our people and nation from such a shameless and questionable character and such a disastrous plight and may He continue to be with us all,” Fani-Kayode said.
