Fani-Kayode, Omokri attack Momodu over political allegations
Former Nigerian ministers Femi Fani-Kayode and Reno Omokri have publicly criticized Ovation Magazine publisher Dele Momodu for accusing Fani-Kayode of seeking political support from former Vice President Atiku Abubakar. Momodu alleged Fani-Kayode was preparing a 'Plan B' after not receiving a political appointment from President Tinubu, describing him as a 'fish out of water' and referencing his family background. Fani-Kayode responded by calling Momodu 'THE PIMP' and attacking his journalistic career, claiming Momodu was once a court jester to Chief MKO Abiola. Omokri also criticized Momodu, urging him to focus on entertainment and referencing past interactions where he warned Momodu about health risks from frequent travel. The feud highlights ongoing political tensions and personal attacks within Nigeria's political circles.
