Fani-Kayode reacts after US Senator, Lindsey Graham called for President Putin’s assassination

It’s no longer news that Ukraine and Russia are currently at war. Some days ago, Russian army invaded Ukraine on the order of President Vladimir Putin, who was reportedly against Ukraine’s move to join North Atlantic Treaty Organization, Nato.

Shortly after Ukraine was invaded by Russian army, some powerful countries including Joe Biden of the United States of America, have imposed series of sanctions on Russia.

A few days ago, Lindsey Olin Graham, an American lawyer and senior United States senator from South Carolina, called for the assassination of President Vladimir Putin in a television interview. In his words “Is there a more successful Colonel Stauffenberg in the Russian military? The only way this ends is for somebody in Russia to take this guy out.”

However, Fani-Kayode has taken to his Twitter page to react to Lindsey Graham’s call for Putin’s assassination. He wrote in his tweet “Lindsay Graham’s call for Putin to be assassinated is reckless, irresponsible and dangerous. Such a course of action would lead to a reciprocal act by the Russians, an escalation of the conflict, an increase in the carnage and a cataclysmic and catastrophic conventional and nuclear war.”
