FFK Responds To Daily Trust's Statement Condemning Him Over Clash With Reporter
#1
Femi Fani-Kayode has responded to the statement released by Daily Trust newspapers (Read here https://www.nairaland.com/6077180/fani-kayodes-attack-daily-trust-reporter) condemning him for clashing with one of their reporters, Eyo Charles, during a press conference in Calabar, Cross River state on Thursday, August 20.

Read his statement below

MY RESPONSE TO THE ASININE CLAIMS OF DAILY TRUST NEWSPAPER

"The Trust Newspaper, in their column titled, 'FANI-KAYODE'S ATTACK ON DAILY TRUST REPORTER: OUR STAND' has indulged in lies, deceit, double-standards and falsehood and written absolute crap. To put it mildly their claims are not only outrageous but also downright asinine.

The truth is that their reporter was sent to insult me, probably with their support and knowledge, and more likely than not he was paid to do it.

If it is true that he actually asked a question other than the insulting assertion that I attributed to him in my earlier statement they should produce the video clip of those questions.

There were over 30 journalists in the room and none of them can produce a clip of where he asked any questions.

He said only one thing and made only one assertion which was the following: "Well, we do not know who is bankrolling you".

That is all he said and outside of that he said NOTHING. I challenge the Trust to come out with any evidence to the contrary.

As regards their claim that he was physically threatened, again it is a lie from the pit of hell. I told him that if he tried such a thing ever again I would tell him off even harder than I was doing at the time after which he apologised and the matter was closed.

Outside of that I bear him no malice. If anyone approached or threatened him after the press conference as he has claimed it had nothing to do with me or my staff.

I did not send anyone to do so and neither do I believe in or indulge in physical threats or violence. If any of my staff ever did such a thing I would sack him on the spot once I see the evidence.

Given all that I cannot be held responsible for the safety of this rude young man because I do not know what he does or who else he may have insulted, robbed, cheated or offended.

I do not know whether he is a thief, a murderer, a rogue, a dumpster, a Yahoo boy or one of those morally bankrupt and shameful men that sleeps with other peoples wives. I do not know who may be after him if anyone at all and neither do I care. His present or future travails, if any, have absolutely nothing to do with me.

I can only say that I do not wish him any ill and that as far as I am concerned this matter is closed. I reported him to his boss, who I have known for many years and respect, Alhaji Yusuf Kabir, and that was it.

As for the management of Daily Trust Newspaper and its editors you should bury your heads in shame. Not only are you a bunch of liars but you have no decency or self-respect. If you were human beings you would have first asked my side of the story before going to press.

This is especially so since I had already reported the matter to your publisher. To say that I pose a risk to any of your staff's safety is not only laughable but also thoroughly irresponsible. I am a man of peace and I come in peace.

It would have been better for you if you asked your journalist who gave him the money to come and provoke and insult me.

Clearly he and those that sent him on this mission impossible got far more than they ever bargained for and I am more than happy with that.

I mean it from the bottom of my heart when I say may God judge you for your dirty lies. End of story"- FFK

Update: FFK 'withdraws' the word ''stupid'' which he used while lashing out at a journalist in Calabar




[Image: 5f460e3291ac2.PNG]


Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has expressed regret for using the word ''Stupid'' on a journalist with Daily Trust during a press conference in Calabar, Cross River state on August 20.
 
The reporter, Eyo Charles, had asked the former Minister who was on a tour of different states in Southern Nigeria if he was being bankrolled by anyone. FFK felt insulted by his question and lashed out at him, calling him ''Stupid''.
 
The former Minister took to his Twitter handle this morning to express regret for using the word ''stupid'' and has now withdrawn it. He also debunked claims he sent some persons to attack the journalist. His tweet reads

Quote:''I met with my advisors & I wish to say the following. I hereby withdraw the word "stupid" which I used in my encounter with a journalist in Calabar. I have many friends in the media who I offended by losing my cool & using such words. I hereby express my regrets for doing so.
I do however wish to state categorically that no threat of physical harm was ever made to the journalist in question and neither did I send anyone to threaten him. Anyone that says otherwise is lying and I challenge them to bring the proof.


.I would never seek to physically harm a journalist. For the last 30 years I have defended & worked with journalists & fought for the right of freedom of exiression. I am also very close to many in that profession.


I would be the last to seek to disparage those that are honorable and noble within its ranks. I hope that this will assuage the pain and anger of anyone that was hurt or offended by this ugly episode. I have now put this matter behind me and moved on. Now my tour of the South continues. Moving to another state today!''
