Omokri connects Kyari’s ‘supercop’ status amid drug links to his religion and tribe

Reno Omokri, a socio-political activist has proffered a reason behind the ‘supercop’ status of the embattled Deputy Police Commissioner, DCP Abba Kyari who is being investigated over drug-peddling links.

Omokri made this assertion on Wednesday through a Facebook post, saying that Kyari was made a supercop because of his religion and tribe.

He also “There is no ethnic or religious balance in Nigeria’s law enforcement agencies, and that is why someone like DCP Abba Kyari became a super-cop.

“The Chief Justice of Nigeria, Attorney General, IGP, EFCC Chairman, NDLEA Chairman are all Northern Muslim males.

Where is the balance? How is that possible in a multiethnic nation? Nepotism and tribalism made Kyari a super-cop! And do not be deceived. There are other undiscovered Kyari’s in the system”.

In the ongoing case, the National Drug Enforcement Agency (NDLEA) distanced its operatives at the Enugu International Airport from the drug deal allegedly involving Kyari.

The anti-drug agency, in a statement, said it remains committed to the evidence-based investigation and would not be deterred by “any misrepresentation of facts.”

Omokri slams Gumi over comments exonerating herdsmen from criminality

Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has issued a scathing critique of popular Islamic scholar, Sheikh Ahmad Gumi over comments excusing bandits and herders of criminalities.

Omokri made this call via his Twitter handle on Thursday in response to comments by Gumi during an AriseTV interview.

In an interview with Arise TV, the Islamic cleric said: “The herdsmen are kidnapping children not to kill them but to get money; so how can you compare somebody who is killing our gallant men directly to somebody who is kidnapping children to make money and not to kill them. Look, we need some fairness in what we are doing.”

In his response, Omokri charged the security agencies to arrest the cleric over such a remark liable of setting ‘Nigeria on fire’.

In a tweet, Omokri wrote: “What is wrong with this man? Herdsmen don’t just abduct schoolchildren. Even if that is true (it is not), what is ‘only’ about that? Herdsmen have killed thousands of citizens in every Nigerian state. Gumi may set Nigeria on fire. How can he say this and walk free?”

His call aligns with that of many other Nigerians who have previously asserted that Gumi has to be arrested and questioned by the security agencies over his alliances with bandits.
