We Packaged Peter Obi As Atiku’s Running Mate In 2019 – Reno Omokri by Putindbutt(op): 12:01pm On Jun 24, 2025
Reno Omokri, former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has said that he, alongside Senator Ben Murray-Bruce, facilitated the picking of Peter Obi as Vice Presidential candidate in the 2019 general elections.

In a post on X, Omokri said Obi sent him his CV unsolicited and was calling him on the phone to ask if he had seen it.

Omokri threatened to disgrace Obi if he denies it, stating that he does not particularly like the former Anambra State governor.

DAILY POST recalls that Obi was the Vice Presidential candidate to Atiku Abubakar under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2019 general elections.

“Senator Ben Murray-Bruce and I were responsible for Atiku Abubakar picking Peter Obi as his running mate. We packaged Peter Obi. I don’t particularly like Peter Obi. The reason I was doing that is that I was instructed by former President Jonathan that this is the man he wants, and I’m a loyal person. And because of my loyalty to former President Jonathan, I did it.

“Atiku called me and said I should headhunt a vice presidential candidate for him. As he dropped the phone, the next person I called was President Jonathan. And President Jonathan told me it is Peter Obi. I said, ‘Sir, I don’t like Peter Obi.


This Peter Obi you see, sent me his CV and called to ask, ‘Reno, have you gotten the CV? Check. Refresh.’ He was sending me CV unsolicited,” Omokri said.

So as a generalist, your company asked you collect resumes for the next CEO, how does that make you the hiring manager?
Low IQ is working Reno.
To set the record straight, GEJ had nothing to do with Atiku's 2019 presidential elections

The uselessness of tinubu APC government is the reason for all this.

Reno could have actually ignored all this but as the Obidients have been on his neck to the extent of hacking his Twitter account, he wouldn't mind to roll in the mud with them.

Anything to kill whatever narration about Peter Obi is welcome

the greatest undoing of obi will b d obedient/ipob fans he has.

Reno should have been ignored same way Buhari n tinubu fans ignored him n he passed away but because of their emotional nature they set obi up for drags
