NAIJ.com had earlier reported that Former minister of Aviation, Femi Fani Kayode has disagreed with those calling the leader of Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu, a nonentity.

According to the former minister and chieftain of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), a nonentity could not have brought about what the IPOB leader has achieved. Fani-Kayode made this known in a tweet recently.
