Veteran Actor, Kanayo O. Kanayo, has reacted to former presidential aide, Reno Omokri’s mockery of the defeat of Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter G. Obi, in the just concluded election.
The election which took place on 25th February 2023 where APC presidential candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu was announced the winner on March 1st.
A lot of controversy had surrounding it as a few people thought the election was not fair and square. Reno on the other hand, who is a known supporter of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate Atiku Abubakar, said in an Instagram post that despite Peter Obi’s frequent visits to churches, he could not achieve the national spread required to win the presidential election.
He claimed that the former governor of Anambra state also revealed Nigeria’s Muslim-Christian population ratio.
In his words:
“Despite jumping from church to church, Obi could get neither the numbers nor the spread needed to win. This was even with three strong Muslims dividing the Islamic vote on the same ballot.
“Obi just demystified the Christian bloc vote. In fact, and unfortunately so, the #NigerianElections2023 turned out to be a census. Sadly (and we warned him), Peter Obi has exposed the population ratio between Muslims and Christians in Nigeria.
“The future political consequence of the revelation may be too heavy to bear! Oya, insult me. You want me to be telling you the type of baseless lies your itching ears want to hear.”
Dissatisfied with the post, Kanayo, a Labour Party supporter, chastised Reno Omokri for seeking relevance with his constant attacks on Peter Obi.
He replied: “After talking, let’s know when you are visiting Nigeria. You are ever looking for relevance”
