Former aviation minister Femi Fani-Kayode has clashed with Senator Dino Melaye on social media as the race to the 2023 general elections heats up.
The fight between the former allies began a few days ago after Melaye allegedly stated that all governors under the Peoples Democratic Party spent money on ensuring that Iyorchia Ayu emerged as the party’s national chairman.
Reacting, Fani-Kayode knocked Melaye for making such a comment and then called for the arrest and prosecution of Ayu and the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar.
In response, Melaye, who used to represent Kogi West at the Senate, said the former minister was being meddlesome.
The duo continued the fight on Tuesday as Fani-Kayode posted an old video of Melaye struggling to stand after he was arrested by police officers who besieged his Abuja home in January 2019.

“He (Melaye) was so terrified of the police and of being detained that he fainted and started bleating like a gut*ted p*g. A grown man, weeping and crying and crawling all over the floor simply because he was arrested. I have never seen such wea*ness and cow*rdice. Is this the man that wants to lead the charge for a serious presidential contender?” he asked.
Fani-Kayode also posted an old photo of Melaye drinking garri with the caption, ”This is Dino Melaye drinking gari when he was still struggling! You can take a man out of the jungle but you can’t take the jungle out of a man! This clown is real jungle!”
Melaye replied, “FFK, l posted this picture myself in 2010 as a member of House of Reps showing how much l like garri Ijebu. I have never hidden the fact that am from a very poor background. I am proud of my past, my present and my future. Won 3 National elections and have a second address. My office in Abuja is 4 Owando close, zone 4 Wuse by Sheraton hotel. Mind you it is my property.”
The former lawmaker added, “Try get nominated as a counselor b4 you can face me. I can hire you and pay you upfront 10 Years salary. Never been invited by EFCC or ICPC. Face your corruption charges as l repeat no food for lazy FFK in PDP. If am sufficiently provoked l will enter 2nd baze with you l promise.”
