Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has suggested why President Muhammadu Buhari has refused to reopen the Nigeria-Benin Republic border.


Omokri claimed that Buhari was trying to pressure the Benin Republic government to hand over Yoruba nation agitator, Sunday Igboho to his administration.

He said the claim by the Nigerian government that the border was closed to tackle smuggling of goods and weapons and to tackle the menace of banditry is a lie.

In a tweet on Thursday, Omokri wrote: “Buhari claims he closed the Benin Republic-Nigeria border because of banditry.

“That is a lie from the mouth of Lai Mohammed. The real reason behind the closure is to pressure the Beninese government to hand over Igboho to him.”

Beninese security operatives currently locked up Igboho after he was arrested in Cotonou.

The Yoruba Nation agitator was arrested at an airport in Cotonou while trying to travel to Germany.

The separatist had fled Nigeria to Cotonou after he was declared wanted by the Department of State Services, DSS.

DSS had declared him wanted after weapons were found in his house in the Soka area of Ibadan, Oyo State.

He had denied ownership of the weapons found in his house.

may be they want to use him to negotiate the opening of the border but Benin republic will not want to tarnish their integrity.

There's a motive behind the Visiting of france president, talking about border closure.

Which integrity did they have before?

true

Wahala

This guy is deranged.


Borders closed June 2019


Igboho arrested July 2021



One and half years before he was arrested for a glaring offence, the borders had been shut. But many gullible PDP Dundees and IPOB terrorists will still believe this rubbish.

That’s not true. Buhari closed the border to inflict pain and hunger on Nigerians. That’s his trademark. The next president after him will open the border

Did he close Niger border with katsina state??

But Benin Republic border has been reopened since February this year and is still open

Who are these liars and what exactly is their agenda ?

Let me explain to those who don't understand what's happening.


Buhari initially closed the southern borders to economically sabotage the south and benefit the rice farmers in the north. But after some pressure he temporarily opened the borders, then Igboho issue comes up so in order to put pressure on the government of benin republic he closes the borders.

At the end of the day it's the common man, buharideens and that griller guy that will suffer from all of these nonsense from the government.

Reno is loosing it but it will be glaring with time. Read a statement by him as to why APC didn't win anambra election and was expecting the hypocrite to tell us why PDP failed as well
