‘This Is Not How To Be President’ – Reno Omokri Frowns At Tinubu’s Silence On Nigerians Calling For Military Coup

Former Presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has expressed displeasure at President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s silence on Nigerians calling for a military coup in the country.

Naija News reports that since the military coup in Niger Republic, some Nigerians have claimed there is no difference when compared to the incident that occurred during the 2023 election, which many tagged ‘Election Coup’.

Amidst the proposed plans of President Tinubu, alongside the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS), to restore democracy in Niger Republic, many Nigerians have kicked against it.

In a post via Twitter on Sunday, Reno Omokri asserted that Tinubu is showing too much weakness regarding prominent citizens and social media influencers calling for a military coup in Nigeria.

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain referred to how someone threatened the United States President, Joe Biden and was killed by the FBI.

However, some Nigerians are flagrantly calling for a military coup and are still allowed to get away with such abuse of freedom of speech.

Reno added that President Tinubu’s niceness on the issue is not a virtue in leadership.

He tweeted, “President Tinubu is showing too much weakness. How can there be a military coup in your next-door neighbour, and prominent citizens, as well as influencers, are calling for a coup in the traditional and social media, and they are still sleeping in their houses?

“Someone threatened to kill President Biden, and the FBI shot him dead the next day, and there are people openly and flagrantly calling for a military coup in Nigeria and 24 hours later, they are still sleeping in their bed? Ha! Tinubu, this is not how to be a President! In leadership, weakness is wickedness. Nobody should get away with that kind of abuse of freedom of speech.

“Nobody! Niceness is not a virtue in a leader. It is a vice. If you are an emir and you call for a coup, deposition and exile straight. If you are a regular citizen and call for a coup, automatic treason trial. You will eat one-week-old bread and water in the DSS underground cell until your trial. We fought hard for this democracy and should not allow ANYONE to derail it.”
