‘Poor little children’ — Fani-Kayode tackles ‘Obidients’ after backlash over criticism of Obi

 

Femi Fani-Kayode, former minister of aviation, says supporters of Peter Obi, presidential candidate of the Labour Party (LP), enjoy hurling insults at others but cannot take insults themselves.

Fani-Kayode said this on Friday in a post on his social media handles.

He described Obi’s supporters as “poor little children”.

“The problem with Peter and his Obidients is that they know how to throw punches but they don’t know how to take them,” the tweet reads.

“They enjoy hurling insults at others but they can’t take insults themselves. One small jab & their glass jaws are broken & ego shattered. Poor little children.”

Fani-Kayode’s comments post comes hours after he had referred to Obi as a “mannerless dunce with low self-esteem”.

You don’t respond to comments of presidential spokespersons because you are a mannerless dunce with low self-esteem and you have no answers,” the former minister had said in a social media post.

“No presidential candidate worth his salt will ever join issues with you directly because you are far too low down the ladder. Asiwaju to Waziri to Kwankwaso I can see but to add an Obi to that list in a public debate or discussion would be a grave insult.

“Who the hell is he and what does he know about anything other than misleading his gullible followers on social media and selling Tomato puree, Bournvita and toothpaste?

“He would not last 5 minutes in a debate with ANY of our presidential spokespersons and even Kwankwaso’s and Atiku’s would give him a

However, Fani-Kayode’s comment had elicited sharp criticism from supporters of Obi on social media.
