Last night, two major opposition figures, Reno Omokri (a former aide to President Goodluck Jonathan) and Femi Fani Kayode (Former aviation minister) went hard at each other on social media and it was quite dirty.
Femi had reacted to statement by 2019 presidential hopeful, Atiku Abubakar who said not all Herdsmen are Fulanis. FFK disagreed with this and wrote a piece to counter it. In his response, Reno Omokri took sides with Atiku Abubakar and called FFK a liar and things escalated quickly.
See their exchange below...
Dear@RealFFK,Read what you quote@Atikuas saying and read what@Atikuactually said. Note that they are 2 different statements. You misrepresented him. You twist his words. Your quote was dishonest. Quote Atiku. Don’t put your words in his mouth! You wont like it done to you!pic.twitter.com/DZyrI1N7QV

@renoomokri, I don't misrepresent people. I stand by all I wrote. I find it difficult to see the distinction in meaning between the 2 qoutes u tweeted. Both represent an attempt by@atikuto suggest that some or all of the herdsmen are not Fulani. My point is that they ALL are!

Actually, most of those involved in these killings are Mbororo also known as Bororo. I did a broadcast on this last year in London. If the Mbororo speak, the Fulani cannot understand them. The Mbororo differ from the Fulani as the Tiv defer from the Igbo.https://t.co/ZqpMQuvgqS

Recently the police arrested a notorious kidnappers known as Evans. Evans was even discovered to have been a billionaire. But neither the media or Femi Fani-Kayode described Evans as an Igbo kidnapper or a Yoruba kidnapper. He was just akidnapper.https://t.co/ZqpMQuvgqS

Boko Haram became the deadliest terror group in the world in 2014. It has been established by independent sources that most Boko Haram fighters, are Kanuri from Borno/Yobe, but we do not call them Kanuri terrorists. We call them terrorists pure and simple.https://t.co/ZqpMQuvgqS

It is obvious who is being dishonest here. Look at the 2 quotes. Nigerians can read for themselves. You misquoted@atiku. It is in black and white. Plain as day. Why did you not just quote what he said?Why did you have to add and remove to what he said?https://t.co/LjziqOXHAspic.twitter.com/w3g7TJkk5O

Let us face the issue at hand instead of trying todivert it. You dishonestly misquoted@atikuand this is the proof. Be man enough to accept it and apologize. Would you like it if it’s done to you?https://t.co/Gd5glR36Oqpic.twitter.com/nXCiA3JuMW

I am rude and you are polite? I am dishonest and you are honest? Really? Again, I put up@atiku’s words and your misquote of his words and leave it to any sane individual to judge who between us is right and wrong https://t.co/OD6mBc9FOppic.twitter.com/iL2MvwUbFw

@renoomokri....for God sake stop sitting on the fence and hedging ur bets. Be a man, call a spade a spade and stop trying tosuck Atiku's Fulani rectum. Real pastors don't eat ass eholes. Trust me, Atiku will respect u more if u tell him the truth and tell him when he is wrong.
— Femi Fani-Kayode (@realFFK)March 17, 2018
Look Femi, you lied. Deal with it. I will not follow you into the gutter. I don’t need to suck up to@atiku. I made a fortune in US dollars from just one bestseller! I suck up to the truth not to men! You told a lie. Fess up to your lie.https://t.co/kqOXeqAxbo

Bad choice. There is no comparison. Not ALL BHfighters are Kanuri but ALL Fulani terrorists and herdsmen are Fulani. They are represented by Miyetti Allah which is an org. with a Fulani leadership. Finally most of their own Fulani leaders call them Fulani herdsmen. READ MY ESSAY!https://t.co/g2yNDQj0sV

@renoomokri,let people read my essay and ur tweet and let them judge who is dishonest between the 2 of us. U can't love@atikumore than me and neither did u ever work in the same govt with him as I did. We must tell our friends the truth where they get it wrong.And he got it

@renoomokri, Finally hear this: The virus of not calling a spade a spade is spreading because of people like Atiku and u. Today Jemibe won, the fmr Minof Police Affairs,also said the Fulani terrorists and herdsmen are not Fulani and are just terrorists just as u are saying...1/2

@renoomokri...or working with some American firm or working as an informant for the CIA? Or did u make it from ur shitty little books? U are the greatest liar of the century Wendel Similin. U created a fake profile on twitter to attack ur enemies and u were caught with ur...2/3

Tell scum and cowards like@renoomokriAKA Wendell Smith that.
— Femi Fani-Kayode (@realFFK)March 17, 2018
Where was Atiku misquoted?Read the full text of Atiku's interview well. Not just where@renoomokriAKA Wendell Similin qouted. I did not misquote or misrepresent Atiku.I simply told him to stop being disingenuous with the truth about the racial identity of the Fulani terrorists.
