A socio-political activist, Reno Omokri, has likened the presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi, to Satan campaigning against sin for insisting on transforming Nigeria from consumption to a production economy if elected president.
Omokri stated this while reacting to Obi’s clamour to revamp Nigeria’s economy by making the country a producing and not consuming nation.
He claimed that Obi was the number one importer of consumer goods in Nigeria.
He stated these in a series of tweets on Sunday, adding that Obi imports beer and alcoholic drinks yet campaigns about turning Nigeria into a consumer nation.
Omokri wrote, “Peter Obi is the single greatest contributor to consumption in Nigeria. He imports almost everything from A to Z, including beer and alcoholic drinks.
“Yet, he campaigns on turning Nigeria from consumption to production? It is like Satan campaigning against sin!
“Enter any major supermarket in Nigeria. At least 15% of what you will see was imported into Nigeria by @PeterObi. Not manufactured.
“IMPORTED. If I am lying, I challenge Peter to sue me. And this is the fellow who wants to move Nigeria from consumption to production?”
