Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, the former minister of aviation and head of the All Progressives Congress Presidential Campaign Council’s subcommittee on new media, has declared that independence is meaningless as long as Arab males are subject to Israeli rule.
Femi Fani-Kayode, a former minister of aviation, made this claim on Thursday during an interview regarding the Israel-Palestine conflict, according to Daily Trust.
Recall that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which started since the October 7 2023 Hamas attack, has claimed tens of thousands of lives and displaced millions of people. Many influential world leaders have condemned the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.
Femi Fani-Kayode, in an interview said; “If we’re not careful, what will happen is that such will be the rage of the Muslim world, particularly if Alexa the al-Aqsa mosque is destroyed and they build what they call the second Jewish temple on top of it, which is where all this started, by the way.”
He added; “If that happens, or if you continue to burn and destroy and bomb people in Rafa, and if this madness continues, the Arab government in the Middle East themselves will not be able to control their Muslim population. They will rise up in a second intifada.”
He noted; “Our independence means nothing as long as our Arab brothers are under yoke of Israeli bondage. We will stand with them any day and anytime to fight that bondage.”
The recent statement by Femi Fani-Kayode which was shared by Daily Trust has generated a lot of reactions from many Nigerians.
