Chimamanda’s letter undermines Nigeria’s democracy, incites Obidients – Fani-Kayode
Social critic, Femi Fani-Kayode has knocked Chimamanda Adichie over her letter to United States President, Joe Biden.
The author had condemned the election of the All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu and the conduct of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
In a statement on Saturday, Fani-Kayode said Nigeria does not need any lessons from an “overrated and Igbocentric new age diva”.
He called the letter “a litany of unwholesome mendacities designed to undermine our democracy, impress her global audience and incite her local ‘Obidient’ tribesmen against the state”.
FFK accused Chimamanda of “self-serving, self-seeking, jaundiced, subjective, partial, primitive, tribal observations and implausible ethnoreligious sentiments”.
The former presidential aide said if anyone needs to know that lawlessness has consequences, “it is her candidate Peter and not the people”.
