In a tweet from his official Twitter handle, Reno Omokri unbelievably said:

If we go by merit, Peter Obi is the least qualified candidate, with a second class in philosophy. My receptionist when I was in government has a better degree. Obi is not contesting to be President of Onitsha Market Traders Association. Aso Rock is serious business!

This remark didn’t go down well with many Nigerians.

When I started using twitter initially, this man's tweets motivated me a lot. I always look up to it. Then I thought he was an intelligent person, not knowing he only copy from books and paste here. This election period really exposed many people for who they truly are.

can't believe this is the same @renoomokri I so revered and respected, 2023 elections have unraveled you to be just another clout chaser, my bad cause I must have really been a bed judge of character.
