Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode, has warned that any attempt to annul or deny the All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, his anticipated victory will lead to a crisis in the country.

Fani-Kayode issued the warning while responding to the statement of the leader of the Yoruba socio-political organization, Afenifere, Ayo Adebanjo.

Naija News earlier reported that Adebanjo, while speaking at the celebration of the life and times of the late President-General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo Worldwide, Prof. George Obiozor, in Lagos on Wednesday, said there will be nothing like united Nigeria if Obi’s presidential bid fails this year.

Adebanjo, who adopted Obi as his preferred presidential candidate in 2022, maintained that Obi remains the best candidate.

He insisted that Obi is not only competent but should be voted by Nigerians as their next president for the sake of equity and fairness, and to keep Nigeria united.

Responding, Fani-Kayode, in a post via Twitter on Thursday night, said the only thing that will provoke a crisis is Tinubu’s victory being annulled or denied his mandate.

He wrote: “Prepare for crisis if Obi doesn’t win”- Baba Ayo Adebanjo.

“Baba mi, the only thing that will provoke a crisis is if, after @officialABAT wins, someone attempts to annul or deny him his mandate. Such an act will result in not just a crisis but a monumental & raging conflagration.”
