Former presidential aide Reno Omokri has reacted to a statement by Peter Obi, who said that if the coalition to unseat President Bola Tinubu gives him their Presidential ticket, he will honour its conditions and serve one term, then hand over power to the North.

In a Facebook post, Omokri posed several questions to the North regarding the promise Obi made during an X Space event on Sunday.

He said, "I have a question for the North. Which promise has Peter Obi ever kept in his life? Did he keep his promise not to leave APGA? Did he keep his word to be loyal to Waziri Atiku? Did he stand by his vow to sue Peoples Gazette over the Yes Daddy audio in which he threatened 'Religious War' against the Muslim ummah? Did he?"

He said that if Obi had not kept past promises, "why would Mutanen Arewa believe him when he says he will keep future pledges?"

He further stated, "The best predictor of the future is the past. Peter Obi swore to Dim Emeka Ojukwu, the revered Igbo leader, not to leave APGA. Today, he has left APGA for PDP, left PDP for Labour, and is about to leave Labour for the coalition.

"If the North believes Peter Obi will do one term and hand over to them, then the North is indeed more gullible than anyone thought.

"President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the only candidate GUARANTEED to hand over to the North in 2031. Arewa should vote for him in 2027, and the Southwest and South-South will overwhelmingly vote for Arewa in 2031."
