Twitter is currently abuzz over the rumoured defection of Femi Fani-Kayode, a former aviation minister.
There were speculations that Fani-Kayode, a chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), plans to defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC), after he met with Yahaya Bello, governor of Kogi, and Mai Mala Buni, Yobe governor and chairman of the APC caretaker committee, on Tuesday.
On Wednesday, the former minister also took to his verified Twitter handle to share photos of his visit to the residence of former President Goodluck Jonathan.

However, Nigerians took to Twitter to comment on Fani-Kayode’s meeting with the APC leaders, with many users taunting him for fraternising with members of a party he had criticised in the past.

Meanwhile, in a tweet on Wednesday, Fani-Kayode said he’s still a member of the PDP.
“Though we have had meetings across party lines and we are in a season of political consultation, I have not left the PDP,” he tweeted.
Below are reactions from Twitter.
Femi Fani Kayode (FFK) who called Buhari and APC unprintable names (printed by some media outlets) has reportedly reunited with the APC.

Never fight online or die offline for politicians. Only your mother will miss you. That’s my TED talk for today.

The way you’re going, you’ll soon meet with Abubakar Shekau and come here to tell us he’s God sent!

My powerful boss and Big Brother, let’s know where you’re going.
It’s becoming a paradox now, the more we look the less we’re seeing.
Ewo lewo, Sir 😄

Is it true that you have joined the APC considering what you said here? pic.twitter.com/G6FOo4z7Zu

It seems FFK is part of the advance team of GEJ

Every APC member has the right to raise concerns about the party, not just the politicians. I DON’T WANT FEMI FANI-KAYODE IN OUR GREAT PARTY!!!

I was shocked to read about the defection of the respected Chief Femi Fani Kayode to APC as announced by Governor Yahaya Bello of Kogi State. This is what I classify as political mixup and misplacement of priority. Gimmicks that will never end#lori_iro

So Femi Fani-Kayode went from PDP to APC to PDP to APC?
We need @FabrizioRomano to confirm this transfer before making any insinuations.— Ikenga (@bigheadeddudes) February 10, 2021
Las las it’s a class dichotomy not a party one. Femi Fani Kayode’s defection therefore comes as no surprise.

He’s only posturing to gain loyalists for GEJ, should the insinuations that he’s running on the APC platform, become reality.
Good for him, bad for the polity.— ᴋᴏɴʀᴀᴅᴇ (@Komrade_Konrade) February 10, 2021
You will soon start telling us how you were blind and now you can see.

Point of correction, former President Goodluck Jonathan.
Goodluck Jonathan is an intelligent man. He knows them all. He knows they are all looking for who to devour and slaughter.— Paseda Ademola Adefemi (@AdefemiPaseda) February 10, 2021
My worries here are most of them including u sir, are not putting on face mask but if it is us lower class it would been six months in prison abi.

I’ve lost count how many times Femi Fani Kayode has cross carpeted from one party to another. 😁😁
Ideology is alien to Nigerian politicians. Anyways, politics is a game of number.
Just imagining how he’s going to relate with party members & other progressives he has blocked.

If it’s really true that Femi Fani Kayode has joined APC, then just sit back and watch as uncle Bu Bu transit from everything evil to everything angelic.
Fear Nigerian politicians! 😂🤣

Sincerely I strongly admire the way you revere the man Goodluck Jonathan. Because you recognize he is a good man, it means that you are also a good man. Good bless you sir. I pray you also attain greatness.
