The senator representing Kogi West senatorial district in the National Assembly, Sen. Dino Melaye, has replied former Aviation Minister, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode over the ex-minister’s mockery of his return to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
In a viral video over the weekend, Melaye had announced his imminent return to the PDP after years of sojourn in the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In the video he posted on Instagram, the controversial senator described the PDP as “home”.
But reacting to the video on Saturday, Fani-Kayode accused Melaye of teeming up with those who helped to bring former President Goodluck Jonathan down.
Fani-Kayode, who was the Director of Media for the Jonathan campaign in 2015, was in the APC until 2014.
Tweeting via @RealFFK, he said, “I am glad that those that deserted us, fought us,insulted us,persecuted us and derided us for supporting @GEJonathan in 2015 are now singing that they are coming back ‘home’ to PDP. Their error of judgement,lack of foresight and love affair with Buhari cost the nation dearly.”
Melaye however responded to Fani-Kayode in a tweet of his own.
He said, “My brother FFK and I are both returnee to PPD. He only got healed of political blindness before me. Thank God we both can now see. Once we were blind and now we can see.”
