According to Dailypost, a chieftain of the All
Progressives Congress, APC, in Abia State, Engr. Nwabueze Onwuneme, has
attacked a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri for
drawing similarities between the wife of ousted Zimbabwe President, Grace
Mugabe and Aisha Buhari.
Onwuneme said Omokiri got
it wrong as there is way to compare the two.
The APC chieftain said the
comparison clearly portrays Omokiri as “a confused man suffering from memory
loss.”
Onwuneme, in a statement in
Umuahia, urged the former Presidential aide to “be more innovative in his
desperate efforts to keep his job rather than compounding it and bringing more
troubles and ridicule to his boss’s wife who presently has several money
laundering charges hanging on her neck.
“This was an era that
witnessed Dame Patience Jonathan [allegedly] broke protocols during by several
state visits where she usually disembarks from the aircraft first before her
husband, the President, exchanging pleasantries before him.
He told Omokri that
Patience’s “show of power stoked the fire that is still burning in Rivers state
where she publicly snatched the microphone from the then Governor of Rivers
state, Rt. Hon Chibuike Amaechi in public glare”.
According to him, the
former First Lady threatened to deal with Rt. Hon Aminu Tambuwal, then the
Speaker of the House of Representatives for trying to bring down her husband’s
government, saying that Mrs. Buhari was too decent to be compared in any way
with ex-First Lady of Zimbabwe.
“Though I am not holding
brief for Mrs. Buhari, but Nigerians can attest to the fact that since the
advent of her husband, President Buhari’s Government, she has carried herself
with utmost humility and decorum devoid of the traits or claims made by Omokri
in the said article,” he added.
