‘Peter Obi will never be Nigeria’s president,’ Omokri reacts to Supreme Court’s verdict on election

A former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has reacted to the Supreme Court which affirmed President Bola Tinubu’s victory in the February 25 election.

A seven-member panel of the apex court led by Justice John Okoro had earlier on Thursday dismissed the appeals filed by the Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, and his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) counterpart, Atiku Abubakar, for lack of merit.

The panel ruled against the appellants on all the appeals raised on the election.

Omokri, who reacted to the ruling on his verified X platform, formerly Twitter, posted a video of himself dancing with the caption: ”Watch Me Dance The Obito Continua. Peter Obi Will NEVER Be President of Nigeria!”

In another post, he wrote, “Dear Obidients, Everyday Is For The Insulter. Only One Day For The Insulted. Remember That As You Cry. Obito Continua!”

The ex-presidential aide is a vocal critic of the LP candidate and declared before the election that he stood little chance of becoming the country’s president.
