The Youth wing of Ohanaeze Ndigbo has rejected the recent Ambassadorial nomination of Reno Omokri by President Bola Tinubu.
Ohanaeze said If Nigeria’s security agencies clear Omokri to represent Nigeria, does it imply that his allegations of a drug-related issue involving Tinubu are substantiated.
It stated that in light of Omokri’s ambassadorial nomination, if Nigerian Security Agents have cleared him, would it indicate that his allegations about President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s involvement in drug-related business are accurate?
This is contained in a statement issued on Monday by Igboayaka O Igboayaka, National President of Ohanaeze Youth council(OYC) .
According to the statement, represent Nigeria in a diplomatic capacity, one must be an individual whose words and statements are credible and factual.
The statement reads, “Clearing Reno Omokri by security agents for ambassadorial post is an indication that his allegations against Bola Ahmed Tinubu is factual, because according to Reno “Tinubu is a KNOWN DRUG LORD”
“On December 17th, 2022, Mr. Reno Omokri took to his social media handle to inform Nigerians and possibly the country he may be the Nigeria diplomat if he gets clearance that “If anybody can get close enough to Bola Ahmed Tinubu to take a sample of his hair or urine this election will be over! Because with his hair and urine sample, a laboratory can analyze if he still takes drugs and what type of drugs he takes.
“Tinubu is a KNOWN DRUG LORD who belongs in jail, not Aso Rock. I went to Chicago myself and obtained verified documents. It will be a shame if this man gets anywhere close to Aso Rock. A nation with a DRUG LORD PRESIDENT, is a nation whose passport is automatically suspect”
“To maintain their credibility, I advise Nigeria Security Agents during screening to demand that Reno Omokri furnish them with the “verified drugs documents from Chicago” which he asserted he acquired in 2022 and furnish the drug deal business to Nigerians.
” lf Omokri is to represent Nigeria as a diplomat would mean a strong endorsement, institutionalization, and approval of his statements about President Bola Tinubu.”
“Furthermore, It entails that we Nigerians will script on our cars that according Reno Omokri ” BOLA TINUBU A KNOWN DRUG LORD”
“The presidency should know that clearing of Reno Omokri implies and confirms the perception of Nigerians that the Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration lacks integrity and credibility.
“Reno Omokri’s criticism of the Nigerian government and certain politicians seems to be motivated by personal political gain rather than a commitment to strengthening democracy in Nigeria.
