Antoeni:
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.

Very soon another pro Tinubu group will write endorsing him. Anything coming from Nigerians has confusion signature in it.

Mehdi is just a .smart journalist, not necessarily a knowledge repository. He uses different tactics while engaging- evasion, avoidance, gaslighting etc.
He's obviously not vast in some major aspects of the middle east politics but he handles his trivial rounds well in drought moments.

45minutes with over 880 thousand views in 3days on al-jazeera youtube channel.Many politicians worldwide can only dream of receiving such attention whether good or bad.

Bwala's haters simply made him relevant internationally.He is the biggest winner in all of this post interview brou-haha

Guys Tinubu is actually a MasterCraft. Have you ever seen him defending his sins before the media.

You that accuse him, he will buy you back to ultimately portray your foolery.

Reno, FFK, Bwala, name them. It's like pardoning the recalcitrant goat and tying him near the irate gods.

Which one be assault. The way we speak this grammar. Adding to Bwala's own blunders. That is why they rated SA ahead of Nigeria in countries that speak good English. People that you can't even hear what they are saying.

It was an insult on Bwala and his boss Tunumbu. Disgrace, ridicule haba

Wow, I also see that the guy narrowly missed a shot from the robber he disarmed.

That's brave but pretty risky. It must be his life learning that they tried robbing him of.

His evasiveness and prevarications were so unnervingly apparent that Hasan was compelled to say, “At the weekend, you put out a video to music of you and your team researching and prepping for this show and...now every time I ask you say you are not aware of that....what were you researching in that video...?"

Forget, for now, Bwala’s inexcusably horrible grammar, especially for a lawyer, his tortured logic and his buffoonish articulation. That was some cringeworthy self-own.

Eweee, ewoooo!!!

Remo is more intelligent. Denying most of those statements is the most ridiculous way to mount defences to such factual questions.

"That was my view but, I guess I was proved wrong at certain point".

I guess he was inundated at a point, bemused to say the least.

Neoteny:
-Why is North Korea allowed to own nukes? NK is aligned with US adversaries China and Russia, and NK is in a state of war with US ally South Korea, and NK daily streams propaganda about destroying the US.

-Why is Pakistan allowed to own nukes? Pakistan is a Muslim country opposed to a US ally, india. Pakistan has a lot of extremists and Taliban supporters.

-Why is Russia allowed to keep nukes? Russia is an adversary of the US since World War 2, and aligns itself with any country that despises the US. It's also a threat to Europe.

-Why is China allowed to own nukes? China is the US's most blatant adversary and is preparing for war with the US over Taiwan, and aligns itself with other US adversaries such as Russia, NK, Iran, Cuba, Iran, Syria, etc.

-Why is Israel allowed to own nukes? Israel has been causing all the conflagrations in the middle east by bombing its neighbors unprovoked, which led to Iran becoming an enemy of Israel. Israel has led the US on many costly wars on false pretense.

So if these belligerent countries have nukes, why not Iran?

Tell me which country has Iran ever attacked unprovoked?

The so-called jihadist groups you are all terrified of were founded and funded by the US, Israel, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE, not Iran.

So if you dispel of the jewmerican propaganda, what has iran done to you to warrant this aggression? Could it be the oil, or the dislike for the filthy murderous Zionist cult occupying Palestine?

Read wider. But I like your curiosity but not the sentiments that came with it.

Permanent members of the UN like US, Russia, China etc can own nukes. Non members can also have nuclear programs but in certain quantities.

It is not not a verifiable fact that Iran is stockpiling nukes in violation of international law referenced above- Nuclear Non Proliferation Treaty. If you were international law savvy, you would rather ask why Trump denounced that treaty and other international conventions and yet claim to act within international law.

Afriifa:
Just for clarity. Refus does not reflect the sentiments of Nigerians regarding the war against Iran. I don't know which sane country will allow Iran develop nuclear weapons. For what? to do what with it? to wipe their neighbours as they often threatens? would you allow Iran build a nuke if you were either Israel or U.S?

What proof do you have that the are stockpiling nukes? Are you aware of several UN inspection reports on this. Do you know how many teams inspected?

People will just be talking.

Long overdue, but what happened when you were in power ?

Richtaiwo:
She didn’t quite sound fluent, though, it felt like she was mentally counting words like a student trying to stretch a five-minute presentation into ten. Even without understanding Itsekiri, you could tell it wasn’t flowing naturally. The tonal twists were so Yoruba-adjacent that if you weren’t paying attention, you might assume she was speaking Yoruba.

Still, what stood out was her composure, calm, educated, and refreshingly unbothered. The kind of grace that doesn’t scream, doesn’t rage, and certainly doesn’t join online stampedes with digital cutlasses. This is the type you can't find among the headless mobs in 10 millennia from today.

Blessings to Oluremi Tinubu, proof that calm elegance still exists in a world that often prefers noise over nuance.

Bravo to your archival eulogy.
