Femi Fani-Kayode

I am not anti-semitic and inom have many Jewish friends who I hold in high esteem. I recognise the fact that there are millions of Jews all over the world, particularly in Europe, Russia, Iran, Ethiopia and even in the United States of America itself, who have publicly renounced the excesses and atrocities of the Zionists and who seek nothing but peace, fellowship, love, fraternity and mutual respect with their non-Jewish neighbours. 

Having said this, I must also put on record my utter disgust and disdain for the Zionists and for Zionism itself which is a political construct and philosophy that I consider to be akin to apartheid and therefore evil.

It is a philosophy that is espoused bygd those that can best be described as intellectual barbarians and cultural hegemons.

THISDAY Awards: Winners of Lifetime Achievement Award

FORMER PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN

Former President Goodluck Jonathan wrote his name in gold in the history of Nigeria’s democracy when he conceded defeat to the candidate of the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC), Muhammadu Buhari in the 2015 presidential election.

As the incumbent president, Jonathan had the opportunity to manipulate the election and dare the consequences but he not only introduced electoral reforms to ensure free and fair elections, he also conceded defeat before the declaration of the final results.

Many political analysts believe that Jonathan was a victim of the electoral reforms he introduced to promote democracy in Nigeria under his Transformation Agenda.

Since he left office in 2015, he has been working tirelessly with his colleagues in ECOWAS to resolve political crises and stabilise democracy in the sub-region.
