Femi Fani-Kayode, a notable member of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), criticized these remarks in response.

Fani-Kayode expressed his disapproval while denouncing the Federal Capital Territory Minister, Nyesom Wike, for hosting the Israeli Ambassador to Nigeria and intending to collaborate with Israel on security matters in Abuja.

He clarified, “I am not overly concerned about the government’s handling of this individual’s outbursts, as there are government officials tasked with responding to him, and I am not part of the government.”
