Ifeanyi Ejiofor, one of the lead counsels of Nnamdi Kanu, the leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) has said that former presidential aide Reno Omokri continues to target Peter Obi and Igbos with insults for financial gains.
In a statement issued on Friday, August 9, 2024, Ejiofor noted that Omokri’s main income is from advertising revenue on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, and X (formerly Twitter).
He mentioned that Omokri strategically attacks to increase traffic and engagement on his posts.
“Reno deliberately crafts insulting, derogatory, and disdainful posts targeting the Igbos, in his relentless ethnic baiting against Igbos, and the person of Peter Obi.
Why? Because he knows that by provoking you, he can drive up traffic and engagement on his posts.
“And to your estimation, you think that a man who earns this outrageous sum will change pattern, he cannot unless YOU STOP HIM.
“His strategy is simple: manipulate your emotions to increase his content’s reach and revenue.
“By constantly engaging him to possibly dislodge his often deliberate falsehood, you become an enabler of his intentions and flourishing business. He is not a patriot in the affairs of this Nation, it is only for business enterprise.
“Here is what you can do to stop Reno and his business: Ignore his provocations. Silence speaks volumes. Unfollow him. Do not give him the satisfaction of your attention. Spread the word. Let others know how he operates”
