Femi Fani-Kayode, the former Aviation Minister, has warned supporters of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar and Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate Peter Obi against verbally attacking All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate Bola Tinubu.Fani-Kayode vowed to “fire-for-fire” respond to Obi and Atiku’s supporters’ verbal slurs directed at Tinubu, emphasizing that he would no longer remain silent.He chastised Obi’s spokesman for implying Tinubu suffers from mental health issues.He was offended when one of Obi’s spokespeople referred to Tinubu as “Nebuchadnezzar,” “a monkey,” and “Satan.”Fani-Kayode also chastised Atiku’s spokesperson for using an anti-APC presidential candidate slur.”With disgust and consternation, I watched one of Peter Obi’s PCC leaders insulting and attempting to mimic Asiwaju’s speech on Channels TV the other day and suggesting that he had mental health challenges,” Fani-Kayode wrote on Facebook.”Like Obi’s men, the PDP, their spokesmen, and their leaders have all been caught on national television attempting to slander and say some of the most outrageous things about our candidate and his health.””Until now, I’ve been quite gentle and kept the peace by refraining from targeting the respective opposition candidates on national television, but let me serve them notice that from today on, I intend to respond to them fire for fire.”
