“I would advise this Ben, who I am told is the Deputy High Commissioner of the UK to Nigeria, to keep his dirty nose out of our (Nigeria’s) internal affairs.
“I know that his preferred candidate did not win the presidential election but that does not mean he should cross the line and take liberties with us here. I wonder who the hell he thinks he is?”
These were the words of the Chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Femi Fani-Kayode, while reacting to comment by the British deputy high commissioner to Nigeria, Ben Llewellyn-Jones.
Llewellyn-Jones had on Sunday, in an interview with Nigeria Info FM expressed worries over the possible repercussions of derogatory comments being made by Fani-Kayode against opposition parties.
In a tweet on his official handle reacting to the Envoy, Fani Kayode, a former Nigerian Aviation minister, drew his attention to the fact that Nigeria is no longer their colony.
