ENUGU, Nigeria (VOICE OF NAIJA)- A public affairs commentator, Reno Omokri, has said that Nigeria’s President-elect, Bola Tinubu, started preparing for his 2023 presidential victory since 1998.
He noted that both Tinubu and Senator Godswill Akpabio, the preferred candidate for the Senate President, learned from the late MKO Abiola.
According to Omokri, Tinubu ensured that some of his allies are appointed to the Independent National Electoral Commission, (INEC), Court of Appeal, among others.
He pointed out that Tinubu facilitated the emergence of Ahmed Lawan as Senate President and Femi Gbajabiamila as the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
In a series of tweets, Omokri said the judiciary may treat Tinubu better than the INEC.
