'Narcisstic white boys' - FFK attacks ex-British MP who described Tinubu as a 'bagman for Chicago cocaine mafia'

Femi Fani-Kayode, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has described former member of the British parliament, George Galloway as a "sanctimonious, self-seeking, self-serving, self-righteous, self-obsessed and narcissistic white boys" following his criticism of President Bola Tinubu.

This comes after Galloway, an MP between 1987 and 2015, said President Bola Tinubu, whose victory in the February 25 election is being challenged in court, lacks the moral standing to speak out against the ongoing coup in the Republic of Niger.

Known for his brutal opinion on issues, Mr Galloway asserted that he only recently learned that Mr Tinubu was a bagman for mafia and drug dealers. He said these were discouraging attributes for someone tasked with leading a country.

“To my absolute astonishment, forgive my ignorance; I had no idea that this man was a bagman for the mafia and the drug dealers in Chicago, Illinois, which doesn’t seem like a great qualification for the leader of Nigeria,” the former British MP said in episode 263 of his podcast, Mother of All Talk Shows (MOATS), aired August 9.

Fani-Kayode who was in charge of Strategic communication of the Tinubu-Shettima Presidential Campaign Council said that stereotyping African leaders as "being fraudulent, corrupt, drug dealers and God knows what else coupled with the usual asinine and puerile misrepresentations and stereotyping is not something that we will sit by silently and take from foreigners, particularly when they are from the West."

“I started to look into the past of the ECOWAS Chairman, Tinubu. I didn't realise that he was a drug dealer in the United States . And the election that brought him to power is still being credibly contested as fraudulent”-George Galloway, Former Member of the UK Parliament.

I had promised myself that I would not say a word at this time when people throw bricks at our President because we have already won the election and the battle is long over.

However here I will make an exception because I just can't bear it when these sanctimonious, self-seeking, self-serving, self-righteous, self-obsessed and narcisstic white boys start mouthing off about our country and our leaders.

And of course these are my words and thoughts and I speak only for myself.

Someone please tell this old fart called George not to bite off more than he can chew. I can bear such insults and words from a Nigerian without responding but not from a foreign leader.

The stereotyping of our leaders as being fraudulent, corrupt, drug dealers and God knows what else coupled with the usual asinine and puerile misrepresentations and stereotyping is not something that we will sit by silently and take from foreigners, particularly when they are from the West.

If he is looking for fantastically corrupt, murderous, pernicious, deceitful, two-faced, criminally-insane, drug-dealing, callous, heartless, avaricious, bloodthirsty, bloodlusting, godless, psychotic, psychopathic, neo-colonial and hopelessly fraudulent leaders he should look within and to a series of Western Prime Ministers, Presidents and leaders like George W. Bush, Tony Blair, Barack Obama, David Cameron, Nicolas Sarkozy, Boris Johnson and so many others who collectively and over the last 25 years orchestrated, ignited, sponsored and led illegal wars and proxy wars in Middle Eastern, North African, Asian and East European countries and thereby slaughtered millions of innocent people, took away their dignity and self-respect, destroyed their lives, ruined their future, shattered their dreams, enslaved their civilian population, lumbered them with pliant and dullard puppet-leaders and pillaged, plundered and stole their national patrimony, mineral resources and treasure all on a false premise, a fraudulent pretext and a perfifdious, stinking lie.

Georgy Porgy needs to be careful when he throws bricks our way: unlike others, we Nigerians tend to strike back and when we do we hardly miss our target.

Permit me to end this with some genuine and heartfelt unsolicited advice from someone who used to respect you and who has read and listened to virtually all you have said and all your contributions over the last 30 years: take our newly-elected President out of your dirty little Englander mouth or prepare for the mother of all wars and a great deal of turbulence in your murky, inglorious, meaningless and thoroughly uninspiring little life.

Stick to your podcasts and behave yourself.
