What Obasanjo Taught Me - Femi Kayode - Politics -

Obasanjo taught me never to join issues with imbeciles, fools and the living-dead – Fani Kayode. A former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani Kayode says that he has developed thick skin for those who always attacked him. The PDP chieftain stated that one of the things the former President, Olusegun Obasanjo taught him was never to respond to criticisms of some persons who were not fertile upstairs. FFK, as he prides himself, has come under heavy criticisms recently for saying Nigeria will break up if Ndigbo were killed again. Apparently responding to the heat generated by his comment, the former minister said he had decided to ignore whatever anybody thought about him. He aired his view via a Facebook post. Hear him, “One of the things that I learnt from my leader, President Olusegun Obasanjo is that one must never respond to the ignorant, the uncouth, the uncultured, the unlettered, the unrefined and the accursed. “He also taught us never to join issues with the embittered, the obsessed, the imbecilic, the foolish, the living-dead and those that are emotionally, psychologically and intellectually challenged. “Rather than a response, such sad and sorry souls are only deserving of our prayers and our pity.”
