A public affairs commentator, Reno Omokri, has called out the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, accusing him of failure to call his followers, known as Obidients, to order.

May Evil History Not Repeat Itself In Nigeria

In Christianity, the most respected Nigerian is Pastor Adeboye. You may not like that that is the fact, but it is true. So respected is he that he was called 'Daddy Adeboye' by a British Prime Minister (David Cameron).

In Islam, the most revered living Nigerian is Sarkin Musulumi, His Eminence, Muhammadu Sa'ad Abubakar, Sultan of Sokoto. So revered is he that Nigerian Presidents even bow to him.

In academics, the most respected Nigerian national is Professor Wole Soyinka. The first Black African to have won a Nobel Prize in an academic category. So honoured is he that a former US President (Jimmy Carter) personally took his Green Card to him without him even applying for one.

Each of these three national icons has been insulted publicly and carelessly by Obidients.

Sadly, their leader is afraid of publicly calling them to order. And instead prefers to go privately to see people they insult to say one thing in private and then another in public.

I have written exchanges with Peter Obi, in which he told me that the people insulting me were not Obidients; but All Progressives Congress supporters pretending to be Obidients. How he felt I would be foolish enough to believe that beats my imagination.

These guys should note that those who do not learn from history are condemned to repeat it.

After January 15, 1966, the Ifeajuna-Nzeogwu coup, there was a NATIONWIDE celebration. Including in the North. Yes. Including in the North. I am a historian of note. I have video evidence of that. And there are people alive in the North who remember those celebrations.

However, soon after the coup, some of our brothers started printing almanacs with caricatures insulting prominent Northern, Western and Mid-Western leaders.

In one of the almanacs, Chukwuma Nzeogwu was shown with his leg on top of Sir Ahmadu Bello's head. Interestingly, in that almanac, Ahmadu Bello's head was put on the body of a goat, just as Obidients have done to many other prominent Nigerians held in high esteem by their followers. They have also done the same to me.

Those almanacs outraged Northerners and made them turn against the Aguiyi Ironsi-led military government. The almanacs themselves forced Major General Ironsi to promulgate Decree 44 of 1966. Let me quote from that decree:

"A decree to prohibit and create offence for publishing, display or offer to the public of any pictorial representation of any person living or dead in a manner likely to provoke."

But that was not the end.

Sometime in February of 1966, a famous Igbo highlife maestro named Celestine Ukwu released a song titled Ewu Ne Ba Akwa, meaning ‘the goat is crying’.

Rightly or wrongly, other Nigerians believed that that song was mocking the killing of the late Sardauna by Nzeogwu. That song and the almanac mocking the Sardauna ignited a series of unfortunate events that no one wants to repeat.

Today, you Obidients have forgotten history and are again making offensive images, songs, skits, and remarks against Pastor Adeboye, who has millions of loyal followers in Nigeria, and against other religious, political and social figures and their supporters. Sadly, you guys prove that the only lesson you have learnt from history is that you have learnt no lesson from history.

Thank you again, and may God bless you all. You may now insult me.

DAILY POST

Omokri said Obi’s supporters have insulted all Nigerian icons, including the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor Enoch Adeboye.

DAILY POST reported earlier that Pastor Adeboye had on Sunday expressed optimism that the president-elect, Bola Tinubu, would fix Nigeria with the help of God.

Adeboye, who was represented by his Special Assistant, Pastor Dele Balogun, spoke at the monthly Thanksgiving service at the RCCG Headquarters in Ebute-Metta.

But, Obi’s supporters felt offended by the statement credited to Adeboye, calling him names on various social media platforms.

It could be recalled that Adeboye was dragged by Obi followers in the build-up to the election when they accused him of refusing to declare open support for the former Anambra Governor.
Many of them were of the belief that the Christian leader might be surreptitiously supporting Tinubu’s Muslim-Muslim ticket because the incoming First Lady is a pastor in his church.

In a post on his social media handles on Tuesday, Omokri said Obi’s supporters insulted Adeboye; the Nobel laureate, Wole Soyinka and the Sultan of Sokoto, Alhaji Sa’ad Abubakar.

Omokri recalled his written exchanges with Peter Obi, saying the LP man “told me that the people insulting me were not Obidients but All Progressives Congress supporters pretending to be Obidients. How he felt I would be foolish enough to believe that beats my imagination.”

He lamented that the Obidients have forgotten history and are “making offensive images, songs, skits, and remarks against Pastor Adeboye, who has millions of loyal followers in Nigeria.”

Some of The comments from Obidient that prompted Reno's reaction.

Peter Obi will act like this is none of his business. After 2month, he will start going on eye-service visitation trip for so called reconciliation.

Reno finding face .. where face no Dey

Ngozi already told the world that Adeboye never made the statement .. so what’s all this gibberish and for who

Maybe some Yoruba people that keep seeing Obi and his goons in their nightmare

handle mop

Its like ihordspy and helianus are in competition of who creates the most obi thread. Buhari see wat unemployment is doing to awa youths

Walahi Obidents have shown this nitwits shege .. he’s now crying more than the yorubas ..

This is crazy..

Suddenly Reno is cleaning asiwaju’s butt and playing the ethnic card ..

So what’s he saying .. that Yoruba people will suyanize igbos tomorrows ?

Walahi dreams and hallucinations are free


Somebody should wake Reno up.. he’s carelessly snoring on a speeding bike

If they don't talk about Peter Obi, they will end up dead. For them to live, they have to talk about Peter Obi.

Reno Omockery, the son of the devil. Get thee behind us!

Reno just want to see obidients attack.. by other Nigerians .. forgetting they don’t have root.. but majorly nigeriMs youths that are tired of the old other

All attempted attempt to tag them ipo and igbos have failed on all fronts and flats .. but the fool keep pushing and keep failing

Tomorrow Obi wins .. the imp will be the first to start praise singing .. for appointment and lobbying for contracts

Reno is daft..

That’s the simple truth .. without sentiment

What’s the difference between Reno and a hungry Fani Kayode ..

Think fani is senseible when we’ll fed and stupid when hungry

Reno is just a daft.. always hungry and stupid

Without validation, loyalty or trust..

A compete imp

Only empty folks takes Reno serious .. I’ve know him and his first family since 09”

Reno and Tinubu supporters have all been trying to make obidients= Igbos ....

not that I as an Igbo care because even if all Africa gang up against Igbos we won't even fling


I repeat name something obidients have done that Tinubu supporters haven't done


The most reverend Cardinal was insulted by Tinubu supporters last week ....where was Reno ?

It is all propaganda. Watch as the mods carry this baseless vainness of the morally bankrupt Reno to the front page. Such a bittered soul.

God will shame all of you wicked people and bring Nigeria in good hands and in the path of good direction.

Reno Omokri is a fool. I can prove it.

1. All major political parties have supporters who insult others.


2. So if one insults you, the consequence is violence.. When APC insulted Jonathan by carry coffin of him, was there a riot? No!!
Tinubu was announced as the winner of elections any riot targeted at Tinubu APC Muslim supporters? No!!
But Buhari supporters who have evolved to Tinubu supporters went on rampage when Buhari lost the elections in 2011, killing hundreds and destroying more than 350 churches.

3. Reno Omokri has insulted Tinubu and Buhari uncountable times. He is not qualified to give any sermon. The idiot derives joy in attacking Peter Obi.



The idiot Reno Omokri went hiding after his master Atiku was apologizing to islamists mob that killed Deborah.

Why are this Seun employees banning people that says anything against BAT? Please stop using the little power your employer gave you to disrespect people on this forum.

He should have used all that energy to condemn the kidnap of innocent worshippers in Kaduna

Go on Instagram, Tweeter and most social medias like Facebook u will see insulting languages credited to Obidients using against Pst Adeboye for a statement that should ordinary from a man of God.

Perer Obi is unfortunately a hypocrite individual who pretend to be a saint of note by forming ignorance to what's happening in the polity. He thinks Obidients are doing him good but of course he's doesn't any moral obligation to call them to order cos he's only an opportunist who wish he continue to enjoy his largesse as it last.

Its only a matter of time before all Obidients and Obi himself outspent their time and goes into oblivion.

Reno should stay on his lane. The media is what caused it and papa refuse to address it on time




I even said to myself when I read d news .how would a father be taking sides

Go to nassaraw Jos , kaduna south Taraba and yell this

They are doing their rubbish

Justice and equity we pray.

Recently, Festus Keyamo descended on and insulted an ordained Cardinal, an Archbishop emeritus...
Who is more higher in ranking than RCCG daddy GO..
Just because he had a contrary opinion

Reno lost his voice and didn't say anything

You were all Clapping for for him..

Wawu.

Reno always speaking the truth.

The funniest thing is he will go behind to apologize and refused to make it public, his reason is becos he knows that d moment he condemn his trolls may likely mark his end. That d way a man who isn't sure of himself or understand that he's an opportunist a real pretender who can never speak truth to issues.

It's God's help Nigerians didn't make a mistake by electing a disaster as president.

Ladies and gentlemen, everyone should know that Celestine Ukwu the late Igbo highlife singer was not the one that sang 'Ewu ne ebe Akwa' rather it was Rex Lawson the Ijaw highlife musician who released the song years before January 66 coup occurred but propagandist like Reno Omokri have pinned the song on innocent Igbo musician for political gain. Na God go judge all of una in this Nigeria. They can say anything to justify genocide against the Igbo.

Obidients are just plain rude and uncouth... it's either their way or the highway. Once you don't see things their way, they resort to insults. I've since concluded that It's either majority of them skipped the home training part or it's just not part of their culture

- Adeboye fought against Jonathan.. even protested.
- Said God brought Buhari.... look at Nigeria today.
- Now said "God gave us a drug baron"... nonsense.

Please let everybody dey there lane...

Reno using Obidients movement to stay relevant and also push for a place in Tinubu Government.
Any insult on any person,Na obidients?
He,Reno insulted Buhari, infact he called himself Buhari tormentor.
He insulted Tinubu, Osinbanjo and anyone against Atiku.
Now Atiku did not win
He is now working to fit into Tinubu Government.
