Former President Goodluck Jonathan’s media aide Reno Omokri has reacted to a viral video of ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo wearing a cap with President Bola Tinubu’s broken shackles insignia.
Although the occasion where Obasanjo wore the cap to was unclear, Omokri shared the video on social media on Friday.
He appeared to mock supporters of former presidential candidate Peter Obi. Mr Obi got Obasanjo’s endorsement for the top job in the build-up to the general elections last year.
“Former President Obasanjo Wears Tinubu Branded Cap. I Thought He Was Supporting Peter Obi. Interesting Realignment!” Omokri said.
The former presidential aide’s post has generated lots of comments on social media.
One netizen Aondoyima Paul wrote, “Aproko, he wore the cap true, but it’s doesn’t change his mind.”
King Emeka said, “Asiwaju, the greatest Nigeria politician and soon to be the greatest Nigerian president. His achievements will dwaft Obasanjo’s achievements.”
Also, Seun Majibade wrote, “They have all rushed to their whatsapp group to look for what to call the same obasanjo they’ve been praising all these while. Say a prayer for the ibos around you because they’re all going through another, and a lot is going through them.”
Another netizen Lannister Aspiration said it was “coincidence”.
Juliet Gold commented, “Hmmm politicians and their surprise.”
