Reno Omokri has decided to put an end to the public disagreement between him and Femi Fani-Kayode.
The duo had disagreed over comments made by Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook that the Hausa language was unique.
Fani-Kayode had claimed the Facebook CEO’s comment was a furtherance of the northernisation agenda but the former aide to Goodluck Jonathan had disagreed as he said the Hausa language was one of the most spoken native language in Afrca and therefore made financial sense if Zuckerberg is interested in it.

Omokri decided to put an end to the public bickering but insisted he was not a coward.
Read his response below:
Dear Femi Fani-Kayode
Thank you for your last response.
Since it has reached the stage where you are irritated with me, I think it is best to leave well enough alone. Let us agree to disagree without being irritated by each other. I have said all I need to say on the matter of Mark Zuckerberg’s description of the Hausa language as being unique. and I have heard all you have to say. Thank God we are both professing Christ followers and are thus familiar with the advise of Saint Paul in 2 Timothy 2:24 “the servant of the Lord must not strive; but be gentle unto all men, apt to teach, patient.”

I believe that affection is better than perfection. I choose to maintain my brotherly affection for you at the expense of perfection in my argument.

By the way, I was in Nigeria two weeks ago. I preached at Holyhill Church, Abuja. The pastor Sunday Ogidigbo publicized my visit. If I was a coward as you claim and was speaking from the safety of California, why would I visit Nigeria after my strong and very public criticism of the current administration?
Let me drop my pen here. God bless you and yours.
