Former Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara has hit back at the Official Spokesperson of APC Presidential Campaign Council, Festus Keyamo SAN, who called him a “political prostitute and backstabber.’”
Keyamo had made the comment while reacting to a tweet by Dogara.
In the tweet, the former speaker called President Muhammadu Buhari’s endorsement of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, at a campaign in Nasarawa State on Saturday as a satire.
“I know that PMB loves to crack jokes but I didn’t know he would escalate it to the level of satire. Asiwaju’ll give his best to Nigeria, really? Fake certificates, fake parentage, golden triangle escapades, racketeering. No PMB, Nigeria does not deserve his best but we get the satire,” Dogara tweeted.

Reacting, Keyamo said, “My brother and law school mate, @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 and back-stabber that you’ve always been.”
Dogara hit back at Keyamo, saying the APC campaign spokesman was pointing above his weight category.
“My brother, I have a name for you but because it’s not a good one, I won’t 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,” the former speaker said.
