Friday, 11th June 2021: Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan has faulted President Muhammadu Buhari’s threat against secessionists in the Southeast.

Omokri said Nigerians should blame Bola Tinubu, National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, for Buhari’s threat against the Southeast.

Buhari had vowed to treat the Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB, in ways they would understand.

The president, in an interview on Arise Television, vowed to mobilise the military and police against IPOB.

However, Omokri berated Buhari for issuing such a threat.

The former presidential aide also faulted the President for regarding the people of Niger Republic as his cousins.

In a tweet, Omokri wrote: “IPOB don’t know what they are talking about, on Twitter, I will keep It to Myself – Buhari.

“You called people from Niger Republic “my first cousins”, and in the same interview, you insulted Nigerians of Southeast Igbo origin and repeated your genocidal threat to speak to them in a language they understand. I don’t blame you. I blame Tinubu!”, Omokri said.
