“I also believe the violation of human rights in countries outside America will also be frowned upon by the incoming president.
“I also believe that he will not allow America to support some of those president’s or Presidential candidates throughout the world who have a history of espousing Islamic fundamentalism. I don’t think he will allow people to just kick others around. That is why I supported him from day one.
“But if you want to know more please read my essays an you will find out more.”
Also speaking on his detention both at the EFCC and Kuje prison, the former minister said he was not deterred in facing the charges against him.
He also said he was already used to being detained by the anti-graft agency.
“Well, I’m used to it,” Fani-Kayode said with a smile.
“I am used to detention. I was detained for 76 days and I survived it. I spent another 24 days- that means three months of detention without having been convicted of any crime,” he said.
“What I can say is that he that is in me is greater than he that is in the world. Those that are with me are greater than those that are against me. No weapon fashion against me shall prosper,” the former minister added.
