Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, a former Minister of Aviation, has vowed to move a motion for the secession of the South West geopolitical zone from the ‘Nigerian colonial rule.’
The former minister who issued the threat in a tweet via his verified Twitter handle Wednesday morning said the move might become necessary if the perceived ‘Fulaniaztion and Islamisation agenda’ continues in Nigeria federation.
Fani-Kayode said a motion by him will be consistent with the precedent set by his father, Chief Remi Fani-Kayode, who on August 2, 1958, successfully moved the motion for Nigeria’s independence from British colonial rule.

He added that the new republic that would emerge would be known as “Republic of Oduduwa”.
Fani Kayode tweeted: “On August 2nd 1958 my father, Chief Remi Fani-Kayode, successfully moved the motion for Nigeria’s independence from British colonial rule.
“If the Fulanization and Islamisation agenda continues I shall move the motion for Oduduwa’s independence from Nigerian colonial rule.”
