Omokri is a controversial figure, lacking integrity and moral authority.


A Nigerian diaspora organisation has written to President Claudia Sheinbaum of Mexico, urging her to reject the appointment of Reno Omokri as Nigeria’s ambassador to the country.

In a letter signed by Comrade Frederick Odorige, Global Coordinator of the Global Coalition for Security and Democracy in Nigeria (GCSDN), the group described Omokri as “a misfit and must be rejected by your country.”

“The controversial character, who is usually clever in a dishonest way, has been posted by the government of Nigeria to satisfy the desperate interests of some persons for insidious reasons,” the group said.

The organisation accused the Nigerian government of bypassing proper legislative scrutiny, saying Omokri “was not screened by Nigeria's National Assembly. He was hurried through the process and asked to take a bow and go, to avoid genuine scrutiny and the debates against his controversial appointment which has been widely condemned by Nigerians.”

According to the group, “For reasons best known to the president of Nigeria, Omokri has been temporarily planted in your country by the current government of Nigeria, whose term will expire by early 2027.”

“A new government will recall him,” it said.

Omokri is a controversial figure, lacking integrity and moral authority.

Odorige further criticised Omokri’s character and past actions, alleging he is “self-seeking and of very riotous tendencies, known for flippant and provocative rhetoric and divisive public altercations.”

The letter highlighted Omokri’s previous campaign against President Bola Tinubu, noting that in an interview on ARISE TV, he stated, “Drug lord is not an unprintable name. Bola Tinubu is a known drug lord. I’ve got documents to back it up. I spent my money, went to Chicago, went to court, and got certified true copies. Bola Tinubu is a drug lord.”

“Given that Omokri is from the same ethnic lineage as Oluremi, the wife of President Tinubu, he was hired and bought over from the opposition party to act in favour of the government he disparaged,” it said.

“That was when he quickly stopped his campaign for the release of the abducted Christian girl, Leah Sharibu.”

The diaspora group also alleged that Omokri was appointed to the ambassadorial role as a form of compensation by the Nigerian government, claiming, “To ‘compensate’ him, he was designated as an ambassador to your country so that he could enjoy diplomatic immunity from his despicable activities.”

Raising security and diplomatic concerns, GCSDN warned that Omokri’s posting could pose risks to Mexico, asserting that the ambassador-designate “will surely fight your government, destroy your international relations, and organise secret protests against you.”

The letter urged the Mexican government to refuse acceptance of Omokri’s posting, citing “diplomatic sensitivities, security concerns, political considerations and administrative preferences,” and added, “A stitch in time saves nine.”

Copies of the letter were also sent to Mexico’s Secretary of Foreign Affairs, the President of the Mexican Senate, and the Mexican Embassy in Nigeria.

Reno Omokri Will Call Out Obi And obidents For This .

Making Reno Omokri Ambassador to Iran , Would Have Been The Best, He Would Have Been of Great impact in Conflict Resolution

If Mexico is a serious country then they must reject the morally bankrupt and deadbeat dad Reno Omokri. A man who don't have an atom of integrity cannot represent a country like Nigeria, unless Tinubu is trying to tell us that Nigeria is now a banana republic.

We know who these so-called “Nigerians in the diaspora” are. The President appointed Reno to represent Nigeria in Mexico to serve the interests of the country and its citizens.

It is therefore puzzling that people who claim they are not Nigerians and who say they do not recognise the Nigerian President are the ones most disturbed by the appointment. In the end, their complaints are unlikely to matter, and Reno will respond in his usual humorous manner. They will only end up as usual with "who takes Reno serious"

Mexico would accept Reno.

You lot don't even understand how networks work.

So, this ipob terrorists sponsored group think that the President of Mexico would accept their demand, instead of that of the federal government of Nigeria?

Very delusional people

Are you a Nigerian?

Is Tinubu your president?

Why crying more than the bereaved?

I remember Chimamanda’s inglorious letter to President Biden in 2023 not to recognize the election of President Bola Tinubu. Well, Tinubu is still president and will likely be re-elected in 2027.

This letter from Ibo people in diaspora to the Present of Mexico against Reno Omokri is in similar inglorious form. Ridiculous, disgusting and against common sense. It will be trashed into the dustbin of irrelevancies just like Adichie’s letter.

lol here they go blaming Igbo people as usual. You should have said IPOB instead to make your post more interesting. In your right thinking mind, you think Reno Omokri is qualified to be an Ambassador?

Trump is working with Tinubu already. He even invited Tinubu’s wife to one of his program and have her a special recognition. So, what more can the Tinubu administration ask for?

Reno is an extremely brilliant and talented Nigerian. He’s also very passionate about Nigeria. He’s far more qualified to be an ambassador. I mean, if an empty and dull character like Peter Obi can be aspiring to be president, what’s wrong with Reno serving as ambassador?

dearie long time I haven't seen you for a while here in nairaland

Nigerian diaspora or IPOB members living abroad?
I'm a Nigerian in diaspora and I didn't approve of such irrelevant, irrational and asinine stunt that will fail.
These sore loser are simply pathetic.
Just because Reno has exposed their cult leader more than anyone else, they are crying and wailing about him.
Mexico will accept him and he will represent Nigeria very well.

Gbola tinubu intentionally pushed reno to a drug known country so he can shamelessly eat his words with enough rotten onions.

Tribalist who has shown his hate towards other tribe can be ambassador of a country...let him go Afghanistan and be there

Reno He goat go hear am this time

if someone like Reno that speaks from both sides of the mouth is a definition of being intelligent, then it now makes sense why your people chose to vote in Buhari in the first place..

We all know those who are against Reno omokri for speaking d truth

Lol they can't reject him ... Tinubu sent him there for the business to continue...

If the tenure end at 2027 what does it got to do with him services his country in that capacity for the period.

No mind them, they are emergency lovers of Nigeria. We know who they are. They do not represent Nigerians in diaspora. They represent IPOB and their cult leader.

Reno Omokri may know understand the full implications of his being deployed to Mexico

It's a right move. Reno is a fucking divisive individual and he shouldn't be accepted by the Mexican government
