All in all, till his last breath bidding Nigeria farewell, Dr. Frederick Isiotan Fasehun’s love for country never waned.

“The FIFF urges Nigerians to sheath their swords, strive for the unity of state and with oneness of mind and will, support the government of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as he navigates the Nigeria ship through the stormy economic weather, turbulent waters of insecurity, inflation, unemployment, multi-dimentional poverty and corruption all of which has bedeviled the fabric of our once upon a time cohesion.
“As a comrade in the struggle for democracy like our founder Dr. Frederick Isiotan Fasehun, we believe in President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s preparedness and abilities not only to bringing the needed reform and transformation, but to put Nigeria back on the global map where she once was and even better.
