Fani-Kayode condemns attacks on Matawalle
Former Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has criticised recent attacks against the Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawalle, describing them as unfounded and politically motivated.
In a post on X, Fani-Kayode said the criticism directed at Matawalle was part of a “vicious campaign” aimed at discrediting him. He argued that the minister has shown commitment to the country’s security and remains a strong supporter of the current administration.
Fani-Kayode also credited Matawalle and the Office of the National Security Adviser with contributing to recent gains in counter-terrorism operations, saying security agencies have recorded improved results in the last two years.
He urged Matawalle to stay focused on his duties and ignore what he described as unfair attacks. He further expressed confidence that the appointment of General Christopher Musa as Defence Minister would strengthen the country’s security management.
