Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has said that Nigeria will be saddled with another “UK based President” if a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, is voted in as President in 2023.
Omokri said this as the caption to photos of Tinubu and some guests received by the APC chieftain in the United Kingdom which he shared on Facebook.
The pictures show Tinubu with the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu; the Speaker of the Federal House of Representatives, Honorable Femi Gbajabiamila; and the Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa who all visited him separately.
Also, one of the pictures shows Tinubu together with the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), who has been on medical visits to the UK since his swearing-in as President in 2015.
Omokri, who stages protests against President Buhari whenever he’s in the UK for medical check-up, warned that he won’t subject himself to such again if Tinubu is voted President in 2023.
He wrote, “The way people are trooping to London to take photos with Bola Tinubu is a warning to Nigerians that if we repeat the mistake of 2015, and vote Tinubu in as President in 2023, we will have another UK based President.
“And if that happens, I won’t do #HarassBuhariOutofLondon again. I will just say Nigeria deserves what she gets, and jejely enjoy the rest of my life travelling and relaxing.
“The fact that we are even considering a man who has been away for three months for an ailment that we do not know, and are very unlikely to know, is a sign that we have not suffered enough. We need a bit more suffering to reset our brains.”
