APC’s vice-presidential candidate, Professor Osinbajo who recently shared pic of him and his Mother has
threatened to drag the Director of Media and Publicity of the Peoples’
Democratic Party Presidential Campaign Organization, Femi Fani-Kayode to court for daring to say
he took an oath with former Lagos State Governor and one of APC’s National
leaders, Bola Ahmed Tinubu to vacate the vice-presidential office for him after
six months if APC wins the forthcoming presidential elections.
While speaking through his lawyer, Femi Falana, in a letter
dated February 28, Mr. Osinbajo demanded the sum of N2
billion as damages. He also demanded an immediate retraction of the “offensive
and derogatory” publication and an apology on four Television channels and
national newspapers.
“Be advised that if we do not receive your formal retraction
and apology and damages as demanded within seven days of receipt hereof, we
shall proceed with our client’s instructions to seek appropriate legal remedies
for your publication and dissemination of defamatory statements,” Femi Falana,
said.
He continued, “The direct meaning, imputation, purport and/or innuendo or
insinuation of the false, misleading and defamatory statements is that:
‘Professor Osinbajo is deceitful. Essentially, you alleged that his motivation
and pledge to serve as Vice President of Nigeria is inconsistent with his
avowed desire to serve this nation with General Buhari, and work assiduously to
deliver the benefits of his commitment, party and personal promises to the
people.’
“Your characterization of Professor Osinbajo as a ‘stooge’
in context suggests that he is complicit in a fraud against the Nigerian
people.”
“It is clear that the entire publication was a vicious,
wicked and reckless ploy to impugn the reputation of our client and lower him
in the estimation of right thinking members of the public.
I think this man shlld go n rest his enjoying this fame to much they won't win
