‘Peter Obi is my project, I vowed to destroy Obidient Movement’ â€" Reno Omokri

Reno Omokri has revealed why he is on a mission to destroy supporters of Peter Obi, known as the Obidient Movement. 

Speaking with News Central on Thursday, March 27, Omokri, claimed Obi was his “project” and he was the one who suggested Obi’s name as running mate to PDP’s Atiku Abubakar in the 2019 election. 

Omokri said: “I took a vow to destroy that movement because Peter Obi was a project of mine. I was responsible for Peter Obi becoming the running mate to Waziri Atiku Abubakar in 2019. I’ve said this publicly. I’ve got the documents. I’m a meticulous record keeper. 

“Peter Obi’s movement, Obidients, started attacking me, threatening me, insulting me. That was OK. But then they moved from myself to my family. I just had a daughter at that time. There were multiple death threats. 

“They came to my house in the United Kingdom. They trailed my wife and me when we were jogging. They found out my jogging route and pursued me, threatening me.” 

Omokri disclosed that members of the Obidient Movement attacked him, his wife and his child. 

He explained that Obi failed to take action following his complaint, so he decided to use “whatever political machinery I have to destroy that movement.”
