Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode has accused President Muhammadu Buhari, of not being a Nigerian.
According to him, Buhari’s father was from Niger Republic.
Fani-Kayode took to his Facebook page and Twitter handle to react to claims by the All Progressives Congress that the former vice president and Peoples Democratic Party’s presidential candidate in the recently held elections, Atiku Abubukar was from Cameroun.
The party had in its response to the petition filed by the PDP and Atiku at the Presidential Election Tribunal challenging Buhari’s victory at the polls, claimed that Atiku was a Cameroonian and therefore was not qualified to have contested the last presidential election.

It claimed that Atiku was born on November 25, 1946 in Jada, now Adamawa State, then in Northern Cameroun, and only became a Nigerian through a plebiscite and not by birth.
The post read: “When a non-Nigerian accuses a bona fide Nigerian of being a foreigner, you begin to appreciate why those that have insisted on calling Nigeria a zoo may have a point.
“It is only in Nigeria that a man whose father was from Niger Republic can accuse others of being foreigners.”
