“Reno Omokri Took Deadly Job against Peter Obi”: Actor Ugezu Spills, Netizens Fear for Ex-Gov

• Nollywood filmmaker Ugezi Ugezi slammed Omokri, saying he won’t recover from the ruins of his dirty job
• The actor stated that the truth was being buried for political gain, warning that history won’t be kind
• The post has since triggered heated reactions online, with fans of both public figures engaging in digital combat

Nollywood filmmaker, Ugezu J. Ugezu, has fired a scathing attack at former presidential aide, Reno Omokri.

He accused him of taking on the most “dangerous and self-destructive” political job in Nigeria’s history, all to discredit Labour Party presidential hopeful Peter Obi.

The filmmaker’s reaction came after Reno’s latest dig at Obi, in which he claimed the former Anambra State governor was only a passenger in the 2019 presidential race and was merely picked to be Atiku Abubakar’s running mate.

Not one to stay silent, Ugezu took to his Instagram page to express deep disappointment in Omokri, saying the ex-aide had knowingly plunged himself into a job that would ruin him, spiritually and politically.

In his post, Ugezu wrote:

"Accepting the job to demarket Peter Obi online is the most dangerous job ever accepted by any mortal in the history of dirty politics in Nigeria. Even the universe is against you. You will not recover from the self-induced ruins. Woe who knoweth the truth but refuseth to voice it."
