Polls: Stop your 'inciting’ speeches against Igbos-Atiku warns Fani-Kayode, Onanuga

By David Kabiyesi

Irked by series of inciting languages against Igbo which trailed 2023 Presidential elections, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar has berated spokesmen for Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign Council – Bayo Onanuga and Femi Fani-Kayode for their derogatory comments.

In a statement made available to the press by his Special Assistant on Public Communication, Mr. Phrank Shaibu, Atiku earned that such anti-tribal comments is capable of throwing the country up in flames if not cautioned.

“Bayo Onanuga, a hitherto respected journalist who claimed to have contributed to the fight against dictatorship, is now supporting injustice and attacks on the Igbo for daring to vote in Lagos. This is what happens when you associate yourself with Bola Tinubu. Your mind and soul get corrupted.

“For Fani-Kayode, a man who was Nnamdi Kanu’s handbag, he has suddenly become an ethnic supremacist, encouraging the suppression of the Igbo people in Lagos all in a bid to impress his paymaster We never expected much from this Jekyll and Hyde.

“What the tribal bigots like Bayo Onanuga and Fani-Kayode will not tell you is that Ireti Kingibe, a Yoruba woman, has just been elected into the Senate to represent the FCT,” Atiku said 

What's your reaction?
