IBADAN, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA) – The Director of Special Media Projects, Special Media Operations and New Media of the Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign, Femi Fani-Kayode, has reacted to the photos of Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed greeting the All Progressives Congress (APC) flagbearer, Bola Tinubu, and his running mate, Kashim Shettima.
Baba-Ahmad is the Vice-Presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP).
He met Tinubu and Shettima during Juma’at prayers at the National Mosque, Abuja.
It was gathered that the APC presidential candidate and his running mate were observing Juma’at prayers at the mosque when they were approached by Datti, the running mate of Peter Obi who greeted them.

The pictures, which went viral on Friday, have garnered reactions from Nigerians including Femi Fani-Kayode.
@lindaibeji tweeted: “SEE THE LOOK👀 IN THEIR EYES, Damn!The eyes never lie . Now they know what Dr Yusuf Datti meant when he said he prefers to be underrated . Tinubu be like “so you’re guy causing mental problems for me , Shettima’s screwed face will always Betray him .😂.#ObiDattiInBayelsa”
“A man is sitting behind Tinubu even in d mosque so that he doesn’t fall off. His supporters are just telling him lies to collect the money. Man need to go and rest cos he is nt physically fit 4 d presidency,” @chuks_dollars tweeted.
FFK also reacted: “When a Mauritian refugee meets the incoming President & V President of Nigeria he MUST squat, shiver, crawl & bow. At least Dati the Daft now knows his place. Now that he is being a good boy we may reconsider deporting him & his brood back to Mauritius when we come to power.”
His tweet has sparked controversy as many tweeps dragged FFK for making a fool of himself and being disrespectful.
A tweep, @DavidChia20 said: “In the Mosque people sit on mat. You can be excused to sit on chair on the condition that you are aged, sick, or disabled to d point sitting on mat is impossible.
“Which is that of Thiefnubu. E shock Thiefnubu when he heard from the back, they were shouting ObiDatti in d Mosque 🤣”

@mikha_el0 said: “FFK should be running for political post if he knows he is capable.
“At least, you’re old enough to become the president or vice of a nation. Peace!!!”
“He prefers to move from one party to another, looking for someone to bankroll his fake media tours,” @oriekose89 replied @mikha_el0.

“You were always taken serious, but your words and posts are just like a butter in hot pot…”
In the same vein, @Georgebabs7 called Femi Fani-Kayode a bipolar, liar, hypocrite, a double-faced serial domestic abuser who has no integrity and lacks credibility.
“Mr kayode will do anything for money ,he has zero conscience and a political prostitute & a destitute.He is a liar,a wife beater & a despicable man.”
