Omokri vows to end Peter Obi’s political career

Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan, has sworn to end the political career of Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s candidate in the 2023 presidential election.

Omokri, a staunch critic of Obi, is known for criticising the former governor of Anambra State during and after the 2023 presidential election.

Before the election, Omokri, in several statements on X, eulogised Obi, describing him as one of the best leaders Nigeria has ever had.

However, the self-acclaimed ‘table shaker’ has also described Obi, among other things, as a leader who prioritises the building of breweries over the building of schools.

Chronicle NG reports that Omokri slammed Obi for building a $50 million brewery while failing to build a single school during his tenure as governor of Anambra State. An allegation Obi confirmed to be right.

The social media influencer has been at loggerheads with Obidients (a term for Obi supporters) over his incessant banter against the Labour Party chieftain.

In a statement on his verified X page on Tuesday, Omokri threatened to destroy Obi politically.

Omokri, who vowed he was ready to die to achieve his aim, mentioned that his position was in defence of his children.

“By the time I am finished with this man, he will struggle to win even in his zone. Both he and his followers will ever regret threatening my child,” he said.

“What they did to me can never be forgiven. I am prepared to die in defence of my children.

“It is either I destroy him politically forever or he destroys me. There is no forgiveness,” he added.
