“2027 Election Is Just a Formality” — Reno Omokri Predicts Tinubu’s Victory

Nigeria’s ambassador to Mexico, Reno Omokri, has said the 2027 presidential election will be a formality if President Bola Tinubu remains alive.

In a post on X, Omokri expressed confidence that Tinubu would secure a decisive victory, citing the large crowd that welcomed him during a recent visit to Bayelsa State

He wrote: “Bayelsa was created on Tuesday, October 1, 1996, and since that date, Bayelsans have rarely seen the kind of crowd that trooped out yesterday for President Tinubu.

“Maybe this happened under President Jonathan, who is a native of Bayelsa; however, the crowd was massive, active, and supportive. And the people, in their humongous numbers, kept coming. I have been to Bayelsa—multiple times.

“I used to think this was a tiny state in terms of landmass and population. Boy, was I wrong! Yesterday proved that convincingly with regard to the population.

“Definitely, this is a state that knows on what side its bread is buttered. Especially when you consider the following fact.

“And as it is in the South-South, so will it be throughout the federation. And that is why 2027 is, for the President, more or less a formality, God sparing his life.”
