Peter Obi is Tinubu's monitoring spirit -- Reno Omokri

Obi and Tinubu Obi and Tinubu

Social commentator, Reno Omokri, has said former presidential candidate, Peter Obi, is President Bola Tinubu's monitoring spirit.

He also described Obi as a content creator who is a colleague of popular TikTokers, Peller and Jarvis.

This was as he gave reasons why Obi is no fit to criticise President Tinubu over the Federal Government's response to recent killings in Nigeria.

He wrote on Facebook, 'Again, Peter Obi, President Tinubu's monitoring spirit and content creator colleague of Peller and Jarvis, has continued criticising the President over his visit to Benue.

"But fact-check me: there was a cult killings in Anambra yesterday, Thursday, June 19, 2025 that led to the deaths of four people. Just watch how this same Peter Obi will ignore those deaths because it occurred in Igboland, and not in his favourite whipping boys-the North and Southwest.

"First, it was about the President's clothes, and now it is about the President not travelling all the way to Yelewata, but instead hosting a town-hall meeting in Makurdi.

"I am surprised that Peter Obi has not criticised the President for not crying in Benue.

"The fact remains that Peter Obi, the man who is perpetually in black (until he went to Indonesia and started dressing like an Indonesian) does not care about the victims of the Yelewata massacre. He is more interested in politicising their suffering.

"This is because Peter Obi knows only too well that Yelewata is currently near abandoned and that, just like a church, it is the people who make up the congregation that are the church, not the building. And it is not the physical town that makes up, Yelewata. It is the people.

"Since the incident occurred, the Benue State Government has moved the residents of Yelewata to camps, hospitals, and hostels in and around Makurdi. The president went to see those people.

"But Peter Obi would not know this, because he neither went to Benue nor sent a fact-finding team there.

"Why? Because, other than politicising their suffering and using it for his failed 2027 Presidential ambition, Peter Obi does not really care about the people of Yelewata.

"He also does not even care about the people of Anambra. We know this because Peter Obi was not responsive, responsible and concerned when his thugs at Awkuzu SARS killed almost a thousand young men in Anambra and dumped their bodies in the Ezu River.

"Did Peter Obi visit even one of the parents of these young men? The answer is no. But after President Tinubu visited Benue, Peter Obi, who travelled out of Nigeria after the Awkuzu killings were exposed, now attacks President Tinubu, accusing him of lacking 'Competence, Capacity, Character and Compassion.'

"Nigerians should ask themselves how different Peter Obi is from the perpetrators of these Benue killings. These killers are bent on ethnic and religious war. But is that not what Peter Obi threatened to unleash on the Muslim Ummah in his leaked Yes Daddy audio?

"More people died at the hands of Awkuzu SARS under Peter Obi than in this present condemnable Benue crisis. Yet Peter Obi did nothing. Today, he is politicising the Benue killings. No wonder he is deservedly called Agbotikuyo: One who rejoices at the death of others!"
