A former presidential spokesman, Reno Omokri has attacked former presidential candidate, Peter Obi for demonising the nation’s judiciary.
Obi had attacked the judiciary, saying the body was the problem of Nigeria’s democracy and not the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
“It is unfortunate that Peter Obi is demonising the Nigerian judiciary as the enemy of democracy in Nigeria. This is a man who was removed as Anambra Governor twice by his own people and restored as Governor twice by the Judiciary.
“Please fact-check me: Peter Obi shed tears of joy and saluted the Nigerian judiciary as ‘the best thing to happen’ to our democracy on Thursday, August 9, 2007,” Omokri said in a tweet on X.
Omokri added: “And now, because the judiciary refused to change him from third place to first place and dinner of the 2023 election, Peter Obi is now badmouthing them.
“Peter, there is nothing wrong with the Nigerian judiciary. You lost an election. You came third. Not even second. Deal with it!”
