Lauretta Onochie, former Chairman of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC) board, has taken a swipe at Peter Obi, the Labour Party 2023 presidential candidate, who requested President Bola Tinubu reveal his true identity to Nigerians during a TV broadcast today.
Onochie, former new media aide to ex-president Muhammadu Buhari, said Peter Obi, former Anambra State governor, is unskilled in manipulation, listens to mentally ill advisers, and will never be declared President of our great nation.
Chronicle NG reports that Onochie offered the unsolicited advice that Obi should go home and enjoy his retirement with his grandchildren as she does.
Onochie wrote on her verified social media page. “Dear Peter Obi, You have shamelessly just gone on national TV to call on the President of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to reveal his identity to Nigerians and the world.
The former new media aide to the ex-president, Muhammadu Buhari, said, “This is the most idiotic request; Nigerians have had the misfortune of hearing from one whose advisers are people with mental health issues.
Onochie said, “Nigeria parades some of the most intelligent people on earth, and you disrespect our intelligence in this way? Manipulation is a skill, and you are unskilled when it comes to manipulation.
“If you do not know who President Tinubu is, you have probably been locked up as a prisoner in your warped mind, or you have been living in cuckcoo land, Onochie knocked Obi.
“How can you allow yourself to be used to question the identity of a man who has been in the limelight since his youth?
“How can you come down to the level of your gullible followers to begin this late in the day and question the identity of a man who was checked by our security operatives and cleared twice to govern the most successful and cosmopolitan state in Nigeria, Lagos?
“If you can come on national TV to question the identity of a man who was cleared by all our security operatives to become a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, that’s enough justification and validation for your resounding rejection at the polls in 2023.
“We watched carefully to see if a gun was pointed at you as you demanded the identity of a man who was scrutinised and cleared by the security operatives in Nigeria to run for the highest office of the land. But there were none. You did it on your own.
What is wrong with you? She asked. “This is like a drowning man grasping at grass. It’s time to stop taking instructions from people who are bitter, angry, envious, and who have lost their minds years ago.
“Our Nigerian youth are more sensible than you think. You won’t be able to manipulate them into turning against their own nation. Your comrades in arms have all tried and failed. This is the only nation we all have.
We will protect our nation. Onochie blasted Obi, “Go home, Peter. You will never be declared president of our great nation. Apart from the simple fact that you came from a distant third, you don’t deserve to lead our nation. Your temperament and disposition are not the attributes needed to lead a diverse nation such as Nigeria. You failed, Anambra. You can’t even lead the Southeast! Under your nose, the Southeast became a war zone. A once-vibrant economy built on hard work was destroyed. Lives and properties are ruined.
“Shelf your desperation. Your ambition is beyond what you deserve. It will never come to pass.
“Finally, you want to know our president’s true identity. Well, his real name is Nemesis Jupiter. His father, Karma, is the King of Jupiter, who married Nemesis’ mother from Mars. When Mr. President was 25 years old, his family came from Jupiter to swim at the beach in Lagos. They left him at the beach to fend for himself. So at 25, he did not go to primary, secondary, or any tertiary institution. I hope you’re happy now.
“Just go home, Peter. Put your feet up and enjoy your retirement and grandchildren as I’m doing, Onochie reiterated.
