An author and activist, Reno Omokri, continued to carpet the former presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi, over the latter’s petition in court.
Recall that Obi, who came far third, is currently at the election tribunal fighting the Independent National Electoral Commission’s declaration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the winner of the February 25 presidential election.

In his analysis, Omokri compared the politician to Mmesoma Ejikeme, an examination candidate barred by the Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board over result forgery. READ HERE.
“Peter Obi is to INEC what Mmesoma Ejikeme is to JAMB. A man who came third claims he should have come first. It is, therefore, not surprising that the persons supporting Obi are also the same persons supporting Mmesoma. What JAMB is doing is what INEC ought to have done. Come out with guns blazing in defence of the #NigerianElections2023.
“If INEC had a proactive and resourceful spokesman like JAMB’s Fabian Benjamin, by now, it would be obvious that Obi and Mmesoma have no case whatsoever. One wants to reclaim scholarships and recognition that she is not entitled to, and the other wants to reclaim a mandate that was never his estate.
“Scripture says the first shall be the last, but in the case of Obi and Mmesoma, the last wants to be the first!” he mocked.
