Africa-Press – Nigeria. Paul Ibe, media adviser to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, has lambasted former presidential aide Reno Omokri for his continued attacks on the Labour Party’s presidential candidate in the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi.
In a post on his X account on Saturday afternoon, Ibe criticised Omokri for what he described as “pedestrian, acerbic, and unprovoked” attacks on Obi.
The post was in response to Omokri’s earlier remarks on Friday, in which he implicitly laid claim to a self-professed credibility, one he attributed to Atiku during a telephone conversation between the two.
“Reno Omokri, you are a classic case study in psychological projection—an insecure man so desperate to escape his own failures that he accuses others of the very flaws that define him.
“Credibility and Reno Omokri in the same grammatical environment? Oh, what a mockery. That’s an oxymoron so wild it should be banned by both logic and language.
“Reno, you need help. Whether clinical or spiritual, that’s for you to decide. But what’s beyond dispute is that you are a master of treachery, a Judas Iscariot—an unrepentant opportunist whose reputation precedes him like a foul stench. Even those smiling beside you today do so with suspicion, fully aware that your loyalty is as steady as quicksand.
“You claim my principal has been ‘good’ to you? Let’s not pretend. That phone call you trumpet was likely just another pit stop in your never-ending pilgrimage for personal ‘goodness.’ Your kind of goodness isn’t ethical—it’s transactional, scavenging like a hyena sniffing out its next meal.
“You also said you never attack your friends unless they strike first. Really? Then what did Peter Obi ever do to deserve your endless, pedestrian, vitriolic, and acerbic attacks? Or was his popularity simply a threat to your ego?” he partly wrote on X.
Omokri accused Peter Obi of using fake figures to deceive Nigerians.
Meanwhile, in his Friday post, Omokri gave details of a recent phone conversation with Atiku, stating that the former vice president has been good to him.
