Nigerian legendary singer cum political activist, Charles Chukwuemeka Oputa, better known as Charly Boy, has berated President Bola Tinubu, over the ambassadorial appointment of former presidential aide, Reno Omokri.
Naijaonpoint reports that Charly Boy, in a post via 𝕏, described Nigeria as a sour nation.
The musician queried why Tinubu would forward Omokri’s name to the Senate for confirmation despite his level of bigotry against the Igbo in the last few months.
According to him, if President Tinubu is interested in national unity, he should not have taken such a decision “to make the clown an Ambassador.”
He wrote, “Nigeria don Sawa. Perhaps Tinubu endorses the filth that issues from Reno’s mouth.
“Ambassador Reno Omokri, that’s a spectacular mockery of this country. That’s a continental joke. His lies and general stupidity aside, with the volume of bigotry against the Igbo that Reno Omokri has vomited in the last few months, how can anyone who cares about national unity make the clown an Ambassador.
“It is difficult to see hope for this country. So how can any Igbo go to an embassy run by Reno with a sense of belonging or pride?
“Some might say after all he had told the world that Tinubu was a drug baron. So we should see him for what he is, a moron. So why make such a hustling moron an Ambassador?
“Tinubu’s such a let down. Why wash our national dirty linens in public? Reno is such filthy underwear. Tinubu ought to have compensated him with some backyard job, but again who knows.
“Tinubu might be sending a message. Endorsing the bigotry that Reno embodies. It’s a deliberate gut-punch to national unity, the kind that makes ‘one Nigeria’ sound like a bad Nollywood script.
“Ambassador Reno…Tufiakwa! [God forbid]! I will never go that embassy.”
