Former presidential spokesperson Femi Fani-Kayode has declared a truce in his social media war with Dele Momodu, the publisher of Ovation magazine.
Both politicians have been trading words in the past few days.
The rift began after Momodu made uncomplimentary remarks about President Bola Tinubu and his administration during his appearance on Channels Television.
The publisher of Ovation magazine, a chieftain of the opposition African Democratic Congress (ADC), had described Tinubu as a dictator.
Fani-Kayode replied the publisher in equal measure in a long, viral social media article.
Momodu replied in kind with his own article, hurling unpalatable insults at Fani-Kayode.
However, Fani-Kayode took to his 𝕏 account to declare a ceasefire following intervention from highly respected leaders.
He wrote, “As a consequence of the intervention of numerous highly respected leaders for whom I have the greatest admiration, a ceasefire between myself and my friend and brother Bobby Dee is now in place.
“I will make no more comments about him and hopefully he will do same. We are both Nigerians and we share common values even though we disagree politically.
“I believe we can both move on with our lives peacefully as from today despite the hurtful things that were said on both sides over the last 24 hours.“
