The social critic and pastor disclosed this during an interview on a podcast programme: “Mic On.”
This was contained in a statement by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Ajuri Ngelale.
Omokri, a social commentator, made the comparison on his X handle citing a series of events in the last one week.
Many natives of the South West were also accused of result fraud, and some centres in that geopolitical zone were shut down. Yet nobody from the South West defended them.

Between 1993 and this year, that’s thirty years, Atiku Abubakar, former vice president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, would have contested the presidential election eight times. Twice – in 2007 and 2019 – he was a candidate on the platform of two different parties, and thrice – in 1993, 2011 and 2015 – he was stopped at the primaries level. He won twice – in 1999 and 2003 – as a vice president. This year will be his eighth. He has earned the honour of being addressed as a veteran. ‘Veteranship’ comes with the knowledge and wisdom of the person who strode that path.

Omokri said in a post on Facebook that in the spirit of the 2023 polls, he will not resort to insulting opposition candidates.
Omokri said this in reaction to a challenge to him on Instagram by a fan who accused him of not liking Obi.
Buhari had earlier in the week appealed to Governors elected on the platform of the APC to allow him pick his successor.
Omokri’s apology followed his criticism of the two-term Governor on Arise TV over his decision to join Labour Party.
This is after goading Indigenous People of Biafra and Igbo youth to take up arms against the state, North and Muslims.
After reading the address, it was time for questions and answers that would enable the editors have an insight into the mind and thinking of the man but his handlers told shocked editors that he had another appointment somewhere and he won’t be able to entertain questions. He left immediately and Fashola was the one that provided answers to most of the questions meant for the retired general.
Recall that the APC on Wednesday announced that its presidential nomination form has been pegged at N100 million.
