Femi Fani-Kayode, an All Progressives Congress (APC) chieftain, has been chastised for claiming that Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar collapsed and was flown to Paris for medical attention.
According to Fani-Twitter Kayode’s account, the incident occurred after Atiku arrived in Abuja from his rally in Kaduna State.
However, Atiku’s spokesman, Paul Ibe, stated that his boss was in Paris for a business meeting.
Phrank Shaibu, Atiku’s Special Assistant on Public Communication, described Fani-Kayode as a drug user who should be ignored.
Shaibu told DAILY POST, “When a habitual drug user speaks, what do you expect?” Tinubu arrived in Abuja shortly after our rally, and Atiku arrived before him.
“Atiku took off from the Air Force base because he was the only person allowed to take off from there as a former Vice President.” Tinubu took off from the old Air Force, and they both landed about five minutes apart.
“He met Atiku in the VIP lounge, where they hugged and laughed, so when did he pass out?” Fani-Kayode, a man of substance, is not doing well.
“Atiku is in Paris for a business meeting, and we have shown pictures of him in Paris. They should go and take care of their sick candidate.
“We have commenced campaigns, and they cannot; they should go and campaign; that are too idle; that is why they are looking for things to say.
“The same man walked to Atiku and was admiring his attire, he was locked in admiration of the PDP logo on Atiku’s breast pocket, and suddenly they said he slumped and was flown to Paris.
“Fani-Kayode is a drug addict, and we won’t exchange words with him; he should stop looking for what is not missing. APC should get busy and shop chasing how to turn rotten situations into bad ones.”
