A former Nigerian Minister of Aviation, Femi Fani-Kayode, has pleaded with the leader of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), Nnamdi Kanu, to lift his curse on Nigeria.
Yaahoo Journalist reports that Kanu, who is leading a group seeking secession from Nigeria, has over time, placed curses on Nigeria. The IPOB leader also renamed Nigeria a “Zoo”, a name he and his followers had since adopted when making statements about Nigeria.
Tweeting on Monday, Fani-Kayode said he blames Kanu for what has happened to Nigeria under the President Muhammadu Buhari administration.
Fani-Kayode, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Nigeria’s main opposition party, said Kanu called Nigeria a zoo and ever since then the country has been overwhelmed by cows.
Yaahoo Journalist reports that the former Director of Media of the Goodluck Jonathan Campaign in 2015, made this comment in reaction to the ongoing herdsmen and ruga settlements controversies in Nigeria.
His words: “I blame @MaziNnamdiKanu for what has happened to us. He called Nigeria a zoo and ever since then we have been overwhelmed by cows.
“There are cows everywhere! Cows on our streets, our farms, our cities, our homes, our passports and in the bedrooms of our leaders! Lift this curse!”
Meanwhile, Kanu is leading a group seeking secession from Nigeria. The group (IPOB) had since been banned by the Nigerian Government, a ban which has since been condemned by some Nigerians.
