Omokri accuses Obi of tribal designs

Speaking on one of the reasons why he (Omokri) vehemently opposed Obi, he said:

“I am against Peter Obi because he is a tribal trader who only cares about his own people and has an ulterior motive of waging war against the Muslim Ummah.”

Omokri accused Obi of selectively speaking about tragedies, suggesting that he only expresses concern when they occur outside his Igbo community.

“His emptiness and lack of understanding on the issues becomes even more evident when he is put on the hot seat to discuss Nigeria’s plans,” he added.

Omokri spoke about Obi’s alleged misleading statements about Nnamdi Kanu

Omokri also addressed Obi’s statements on Nnamdi Kanu, leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), claiming that Obi had misled Nigerians by claiming there was a court order ordering Kanu’s release.

“Contrary to Peter Obi’s IPOB inspired lies, the Supreme Court ruled on December 15, 2023 that Nnamdi Kanu must answer,” he noted.

Omokri also did not hold back in criticizing Obi’s tenure as governor saying,

“I will not sit back and watch a man who built two loss-making breweries but did not build a single kindergarten, primary, secondary school or university during his eight-year tenure as governor of Anambra say he has all the answers to the questions of Nigeria challenges.”
