Reno Omokri, ex-president Goodluck Jonathan’s media aide, has stated that Nigeria would have been thrown into a second civil war if the Presidential Election Petition Court’s judgment favoured Peter Obi, the Labour Party’s presidential candidate.
Recall that the Presidential Election Petition Court recently declared that President Bola Tinubu was not convicted in the United States and that he did not need to win 25 percent of the votes in the FCT to be declared president, as Labour Party and its presidential candidate, Peter Obi, argued in their petitions.
While reacting to the tribunal on Twitter, Omokri lauded the judgement and stressed that Nigeria would have been dragged into a civil war if Obi’s petitions had succeeded.
He tweeted: “If Peter Obi had won the #NigerianElections2023 , or at the Presidential Election Petition Court, there would have been a civil war in Nigeria. Not may. Would. Why? Because he and his Obidients were just too arrogant and were already recreating, and would have further recreated the events that led up to the Nigerian Civil War.”
He tweeted that Obi’s supporters “were more fascistic than Mussolini” and alleged that “after Peter Obi lost, prominent Obidients with direct ties to Peter Obi were openly calling for a military coup to restore Obi’s mandate.”
