Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has tackled ex-Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, over his silence regarding the conviction of self-acclaimed Biafra Prime Minister, Simon Ekpa.
Omokri challenged Obi to react to the conviction of Ekpa by a Finnish court.
Posting on X, he berated the former presidential candidate for his quick reaction to the incident involving Fuji singer, K1 De Ultimate and ValueJet.
He wrote: “If Peter Obi is bold enough to talk about Simon Ekpa’s conviction today (not tomorrow), the way he QUICKLY spoke about the incident involving K1 De Ultimate, AKA King Wasiu Ayinde Marshall, whose arrests and prosecution he called for, I will give everything I am wearing here to one random follower. Tick tock. The clock is ticking.”
On Monday, a Päijät-Häme District Court in Finland sentenced Ekpa to six years’ imprisonment for terrorism offences.
Finnish authorities had, on November 21, 2024, arrested Ekpa following an investigation by its National Bureau of Investigation into allegations of inciting terrorism and promoting violence through social media, activity believed to have contributed to unrest in southeastern Nigeria.
Prior to his arrest and sentence, Ekpa was linked to terrorist activities in southeast Nigeria.
