President Goodluck Jonathan’s APC Nomination Forms: Reno Omokri Reacts.
By Ebor Cletus Ralph Jr.
As reactions over the purchase of nomination and expression of interest forms for Ex-president Jonathan flood in in torrents, his former aide, Reno Omokri, has said his former principal won’t join the 2023 presidential race secretly.
Reno made this point while reacting to the purchase of the N100 million Nomination and Expression of Interest forms of the APC for his former principal by some groups.
Reacting, the former president had, however, said that, the forms were bought without his consent.
Omokri posted, “Jonathan has nothing to do with the reported purchase of some forms. He has an official spokesman and his own staff. He is a man of honour and will not do anything surreptitiously. The media and the public should be guided.
“I could have denied this hours ago, but I deliberately declined in order to watch his enemies and mine dance deliriously at the thought that they’d demystified @GEJonathan. There is no Nigerian alive that has the national and international credibility that HE GEJ has.”
Jonathan had rejected the forms bought for him to contest the 2023 presidential election by nomadic Fulani pastoralists and Almajiri communities.
Jonathan’s Media Adviser, Mr Ikechukwu Eze, in a statement on Monday, said it was an insult for the community to buy the forms for him without his consent.
