“Fighting on social media can’t change court verdict” — Reno Omokri to party supporters

Political activist, Reno Omokri, cautions opposition parties against engaging in social media fights as he believes it would not influence the court decisions made by election petition tribunals.

This comes ahead of the presidential election petitions court fixed for Monday, May 8 for the hearing of the petitions challenging Bola Tinubu‘s emergence as the president-elect.

Reno Omokri urged opposition parties to pursue peace while he emphasized that the court’s declaration of the President would determine the future of the country.

He made this known on Twitter on Saturday where he encouraged Nigerians to identify a cause that they can contribute to for the betterment of the nation.

“Realise and accept that elections are over. The only hope for a change in who the next President will be is the courts. Fighting supporters of other parties on social media won’t affect the judicial outcome. So, let us heal and behave like human beings with a common destiny.

The election brought about identities like Obidients, BATists, and Kwankwasiyya. Now, we need to step out of that limited circle and resume our original identity as Nigerians. Instead of abuse, let us amuse each other. Rather than curse, let us chart a new cause,” he added.
