A very calculated deployment, Reno to Mexico city, he's going to be chilling as a next door neighbor to the US. FFK to Germany. Baba knows these two need as much time for local politics and their expertise will come in handy during campaign to dismantle opposition's lies and propaganda. He simply deployed them to countries where they're less volume of activities.

It’s like sending him into obscurity.

Wadoboy:
Mexico City, when the cartels are already bringing the war to the capital city.

PBAT is a genius. Read my lips, this was intentional

contentEngineer:
So this is what Rhino monkey has been fighting for , evil hearted bitch of a pastor

greatseed:
This Reno's posting was purposeful! Baba Tinubu, cross him & he will teach you a lesson directly or indirectly! El-Rufai can relate! If he hadn't dished out some retaliation tactic against any misyarn person yet, wait till 2nd term & you will understand they are certain people you should watch tongue against. ;

Katell:
Reno was never forgiven.

This is a mockery of Reno Omokri disguise as appointment.

Tinubu is a don.

Reno should watch his back once second term is secured.

Mexico city is one of the best top 20 cities in the world as well as a top 20 largest cities in the world. Get exposed and stop embarrassing yourselves.

It will be very interesting unfolding development. From the decision to go there, presenting his letter of discredence and then undefendable explanation of the past starts.

I will be personally writing a petition to the embassy or high commission and give them a detailed profile of Reno Omokri especially his identity theft case as Wendell Similin

Also we will be showing the Mexican authorities where he degraded his country through a Chatham house protest and confirming he has documents on the president as a know Dr*g lord.
