Wasiu only weak, not wicket, unlike Obi - Omokri

However, Omokri explained that KWAM 1 was only weak and not wicked, considering his apology to the ValueJet officials, unlike Peter Obi, adding that the fuji icon "demonstrated that though he may be weak, he is not wicked."

The former presidential aide alleged that Obi was caught in "a leaked audio threatening to unleash "Religious War" on the Muslim Ummah" ahead of the 2023 election, recalling the controversial 'Yes Daddy' tape.

Omokri argued that Obi has neither admitted to have erred in the leaked audio nor denied it. According to Omokri, if the former governor of Anambra state could not admit his error when he was out of power, how would he admit mistakes when out of power.
