Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri has revealed that he has arrived in Nigeria and he was not arrested upon arrival as many speculated.

He noted that his move to Nigeria was to prove critics wrong who claim he would be arrested should he step foot in the country following allegations on corruption.

Speaking in a video shared on his Twitter page, Omokri noted that his "hands are clean" and that despite the investigation from the previous administration, nothing was found on him.

He was of the view that he is able to criticize any government because his hands are clean.

The ex-aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan challenged Obidients, supporters of Peter Obi to come and get him.

He said;

"Many of you have been spreading these spurious allegations that I would be arrested if I came to Nigeria.

"And have been hearing it for years and have been ignoring it. But you know what? It got to my nerves, and I decided to come to Nigeria."

"My hands are free; my hands are clean. I was investigated up to my underwear by the previous administration, nothing could be found on me. I didn't steal government money, I didn't put government money into my bank account.

"So, on what basis would anybody have for arresting me? That's why I can criticise any administration because my hands are clean. If there are ten people who served Nigerian without stealing, without messing themselves up, I am one of them. So come and get me if you think my hands are dirty."
