Reactions As Retired American Counselor Calls Festus Keyamo ‘Mr Mugu’

(AFRICAN EXAMINER) – Nigerians on Wednesday took to the media space to react to the war of words between retired American mental health counselor, Dr Jeffery Guterman and the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential Campaign Council and Minister of State, Labour & Employment, Festus Keyamo.

African Examiner recalls that the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, had in a viral video made some remarks about the presidential candidate of the APC, Bola Tinubu.

Reacting, Keyamo, had jumped in to defend his principal and replying to Keyamo, Guterman wrote: “Shame on you Festus Keyamo”.

Responding, the minister enjoined the American to stay away from Nigerian politics.

“Man @JeffreyGuterman, as a hired online mercenary without a Nigerian Permanent Voter’s Card (PVC), may I suggest you stay away from our local politics? I am under restraint from professional bodies to which I belong, hence I have not descended on you with the worst expletives,” he wrote.

Responding, the American wrote: “I will not stay away from Nigerian politics, Mr. Mugu @fkeyamo. #PeterObiForPresident.”

African Examiner writes that Mugu in pidgin refers to an unwise or foolish person.
