It appears the verbal attacks between Yakubu Dogara, former Speaker of the House of Representatives, and Festus Keyamo, Minister of State for Labour, will not cease anytime soon. <\/p>\n
The duo have been hurling diatribes at each other on Twitter<\/a> since Dogara criticised President Muhammadu Buhari for restating his commitment to Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, presidential candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).<\/p>\n Keyamo, who is a spokesman for the Tinubu-Shettima Campaign Council, had in a tweet on Sunday morning referred to Dogara as a \u201cpolitical prostitute, wanderer and back-stabber.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cMy brother and law schoolmate, @YakubDogara, this tweet is beneath you. You are actually pained by the support of PMB for @officialABAT, two leaders who have stayed true to their beliefs and causes, unlike the political prostitute, wanderer & back-stabber that you\u2019ve always been,\u201d Keyamo wrote.<\/p>\n Responding to the tweet, Dogara said, \u201cMy brother, I have a name for you but because it\u2019s not a good one, I won\u2019t say it as a cost of friendship. Yes, we were mates at Law School but I am waiting for you to win a councilorship election first so we can be mates in politics. Learn to punch below your weight category.\u201d<\/p>\n In a fresh response, Keyamo, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), wrote: \u201cMy brother, it is sad you think everyone must be rated by elections won and lost. You\u2019ve just insulted millions of Nigerians in their various fields of endeavour. Let me remind you that I\u2019ve reached the height of our profession & you must learn to respect your senior at the bar!\u201d<\/p>\n My brother, it is sad you think everyone must be rated by elections won and lost.
