Biafran map: Fani Kayode, Kate Henshaw ‘sheath swords’

Former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani Kayode, has apologized to Nollywood actress, Kate Henshaw for assuming she wrote the article on Biafra map which was actually written by someone else with a similar name.

Fani-Kayode said it was wrong for the actress to come up with such a map without seeking their consents.

A map of Biafra emanated from the social media account believed to be that of the actress yesterday, depicting that all the South-South states as well as Benue and some parts of Igala communities are part of the Biafra Republic.

Kayode, said Henshaw was being disingenuous and unduly hostile to Nnamdi Kanu and the concept and spirit of Biafra.

But on Thursday morning, the actress cleared the air via her Twitter handle, saying that the account belongs to one Ken Henshaw, and not Kate Henshaw and further demanded apology from Kayode.

In response, however, Fani-Kayode wrote, “My attention has been drawn to the fact that it was not Kate Henshaw but rather Ken Henshaw that made the comments about Biafra.

“What was all over Facebook yesterday was Kate Henshaw Nutall hence the error.

“I assumed that she wrote it. Now she has denied it; I shall amend the essay accordingly and resend it. I regret the error.”

Meanwhile, Henshaw has reacted to the apology by saying, “I am grateful for that. Let the month begin with harmony.

“I accept your apology. Thank you for doing the right thing.”
