Ahead of the 2027 general elections, Reno Omokri, former media aide to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan has declared that the presidential candidate of the Labour Party in the last election, Peter Obi is currently the number one opposition figure in the country.
Omokri, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, who had worked for the former vice president, Atiku Abubakar in previous presidential elections, declared that any other politician parading himself as a bigger opposition figure in the country is suffering delusion.
In a Facebook post on Friday, Omokri revealed that he admires how Obi has trudged on despite the obstacles he faces.
According to Omokri, “Peter Obi is currently the Number One opposition figure in Nigeria. Bar none.
“Anybody in any opposition party who thinks that he is bigger than Obi right now is just deluded”, Okokri who is an avid critic of Obi stated in his post.
He insisted that “some people in one or two opposition parties have already been retired by Obi, but they just don’t know it yet because their money is keeping them on political life support.
“If only he could be less Igbo-centric, appeal to his Obidients to use persuasive rather than abusive words and admit, then apologise for his ‘Yes Daddy” religious war’ comment against the Muslim Ummah, he would go far”.
