Adebayo Shittu during his ministerial screening

Ministerial nominee Adebayo Shittu has come under fire from former Aviation minister, Femi Fani Olukayode for his refusal to comment on the dreaded Boko Haram sect while he was undergoing screening in the Senate on 20th of October.

Shittu said that he will not like to comment much on Boko Haram and their activities because he still has a family to cater for, citing that the sect members have in time past killed anyone who spoke openly against them and so he wanted to be careful,

Femi Fani Kayode took to his Facebook page to slam Shittu, calling him a coward or a Boko Haram sympathiser.

'"I won't comment on Boko Haram, I still have a family to take care of"- Honorable Minister- designate Alhaji Bayo Shittu. Bayo Shittu is either a coward or a closet Boko Haram sympathiser. Shame on him,'' Fani Olukayode wrote.
