Reno Omokri and Femi Fani-Kayode: A tale of two…friends

By DELE MOMODU

I was going to ignore these two but later decided to respond to them just in case they think they could bully me into silence and submission.

No. They can’t. They both have no credibility whatsoever. Together, they have expressed the worst views ever about Bola Tinubu that they will never be able to erase, or clean up, in a million years, except the world finally comes to an end.

The only reason I could adduce for Tinubu’s tolerance of both irritants is desperation and his inability to find better people to do the dirty jobs. The brains of these ones have been configured to say anything and delete immediately.

I have never disparaged Tinubu in my life. I have never called him a murderer. I have never called him a drug baron or addict. I’m intelligent enough, not to say what I have no proof of. Only morons talk without thinking. I thank God for good upbringing. I do not fight like pigs. And I have a job and manage my modest income. I’m not seeking government appoints. I know how many times Femi and Reno have reached out to me, privately, either begging for publicity or apologising for attacking me publicly.

All I have accused Tinubu of is DICTATORSHIP and I stand by it with my full chest. I oppose tyranny because I once suffered under it. Chief Moshood Abiola won an election but dictatorship deprived him of his victory. Why should we replace military dictators with civilian slave masters. That’s my only grouse against Tinubu. Because of our past association, I have been partial and generous to him by not being as critical of him as I did to his predecessors.

Because of Tinubu, I stopped writing my PENDULUM column on the back page of Thisday and The Boss newspapers. Also, out of respect for Yoruba elder statesmen, including retired Generals who pleaded that we give him time to stabilise. They are alive to bear me witness.

How Femi and Reno can continue to harass people on behalf of a Tinubu they have permanently damaged and sent to the cleaners really baffles me.

But this is Nigeria…
