He said:
“You insult me and say I am broke because I had talks with two APC governors. Do you know that I spend more on my monthly salary bill in one month than some of these people that are claiming I am broke earn in 5 or 10 years?
“I have 55 domestic staff in my house alone. Not one of them gets below 70,000 naira per month which is higher than the national minimum wage."
Fani-Kayode said for the last 60 years of his life, God has been good to him as he caused him to excel, prosper and flourish and that from beginning to end.
He noted:
“You say I make money through politics, meanwhile I left public office in 2007 which is 13 years ago! Does that make sense to you? In any case, is politics my only source of income in the world?
