Omokri Reacts As Ohanaeze Drags Soludo To Igbo Deities Over Comment Against Obi

Reno Omokri, a socio-political activist, has condemned the apex Igbo socio-cultural organization, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, for linking the incumbent governor of Anambra State, Charles Soludo, to two deities over his recent outbursts against Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

While condemning Soludo’s attack on Obi, Ohanaeze’s Secretary-General, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, said in a statement on Tuesday that the governor would be punished for his actions.

Recall that Soludo launched a verbal attack on Obi on Monday over alleged Labour Party backlash against him sparked by the Governor’s recent remark that Obi’s investment in the state was next to nothing.

In a lengthy article published on Monday, the governor declared that Peter Obi will not win the upcoming February election, claiming that jumping from party to party will not help him.

Ohanaeze, on the other hand, described Soludo’s actions as ridiculous, unreasonable, and premature, claiming that he had been dragged to two powerful deities, Chokoleze in Mbaise and Ubiniukpabi in Arochuku.

In response, Omokri, a staunch supporter of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, said in a post on his social media accounts that Ohanaezes’ move was a sign of tribalism.

In his words: “Why would Ohana’eze Ndi’Igbo threaten to curse Governor Charles Soludo for criticising Peter Obi? Does it mean Obi is now officially an Igbo candidate? That is saying a lot to the rest of Nigeria.

“Many Yorubas, including serving and former Governors, criticise Tinubu! Afenifere has never threatened to curse them! Many Northerners, including serving and former Senators, criticise Atiku.

“The Arewa Consultative Forum and the Northern Elders Forum never threatened them. In fact, a faction of Afenifere even endorsed Peter Obi.

“This act of Ohana’eze Ndi’Igbo is sending a very wrong message to Nigeria at a time when we are moving away from tribal politics, to ideology-based politics.”
