BREAKING: Expect Premium Tears From #Obidients In A Few Hours, Says Reno Omokri – #PEPTJudgement—Former media aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has lampooned Peter Obi’s supporters, Obidients ahead of Presidential Election Tribunal coming up in few hours.
He made this known via his official twitter page.
The Genius Media Nigeria had earlier reported that the judgment in the three cases challenging the outcome of the Feb.25 presidential election, will be delivered today, Wednesday, September 6, at the court complex, located at the Three Arms Zone, Shehu Shagari Way, Central Business District of Abuja.
The eagerly anticipated verdict is coming about a month after the court heard the closing arguments of parties to the petitions and about two weeks to the expiration of the statutory 180-day lifespans within which the cases filed in March must be heard and determined.
The five-member panel of the court headed by Haruna Tsammani had reserved judgements on the petitions after hearing the closing arguments of the parties to the cases in early August.
Speaking ahead of the likely outcome from the tribunal, Reno said that Nigerians in Diaspora should expect premium tears from Obidients in a few hours and maximum propaganda (the judges were bribed, etc.). If you sell handkerchiefs and tissue papers, expect to profit from Obidients today.
He tweeted:
Again, it is most unlikely that the Presidential Election Petition Court would grant Peter Obi’s prayers to cancel the #NigerianElections2023 and order a new election. First of all, he did not prove his case simply because he had no case, and the damage to Nigeria far outweighs the personal benefit to Mr. Obi.
He is basing his whole case on a technicality, seeking to nullify the nomination of President Bola Tinubu and his deputy. Meanwhile, the way he emerged as the Labour Party candidate is very shady indeed. It is doubtful that Peter Obi was even on the Labour Party register when it was submitted to INEC.
He is more likely to suffer from a technicality than benefit from one. So, expect premium tears from Obidients in a few hours and maximum propaganda (the judges were bribed, etc.). If you sell handkerchiefs and tissue papers, expect to profit from Obidients today. Waziri Atiku’s prayers are more reasonable.
He proved lapses by INEC and is asking that, based on those lapses, he be declared the winner and thus the President-elect. In a few hours, we will know what the judges think. But whatever the judgment, democracy must continue to thrive. I fully, totally and unequivocally support the Nigerian police in their determination to prevent any breakdown of law and order.
I urge Obidients to rein their tongues and stop their unpatriotic coup baiting. This is not January 15, 1966. And Nigeria will not break up because Peter Obi could not reclaim a mandate he never lost in the first place.
Again, it is most unlikely that the Presidential Election Petition Court would grant Peter Obi's prayers to cancel the #NigerianElections2023 and order a new election. First of all, he did not prove his case simply because he had no case, and the damage to Nigeria far outweighs…
