Buhari reacts as Reno Omokri demands to challenge Buratai on One-On-One Fight
Assistant to Buhari, Bashir Ahmad responded to a one-on-one battle after former aide to ex-president Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri challenge chief of military staff, Lt . General Tukur Buratai to one on one battle.
Remember that Omokri said he wants to avenge the killing of unarmed demonstrators in a proposal, now being touted as David versus Goliath’s battle.
According to him, he wants God to use him to avenge the death on 20 October at the Lekki tollgate of the slaughtered unarmed peaceful protestors.
“My greatest desire in November is to be in a room with General Buratai. No weapons. No referee. Man to man combat. “Only one man coming out alive. Let God use me to avenge the cowardly slaughter of peaceful, unarmed, #EndSARS protesters at #LekkiMassacre by that spineless coward!”
The tweet, which has now been restricted, has gone viral with over 5000 retweets.
One Twitter commenter warned him that General Buratai will beat him up as he is a field officer, still full of strength despite his age.
Omokri responded by saying that Buratai should take up his challenge first.
Another commenter said Omokri holds a black belt in karate.
It was not clear whether Omokri really wanted to face the general, or was just joking.
Following this, Buhari’s presidential aide, Bashir Ahmed has reacted saying Reno just want to compete for likes and retweets.
