LAGOS, Nigeria – Reno Omokri, a former aide to President Goodluck Jonathan has called on Vice President of Nigeria, Professor Yemi Osinbajo to sue Jackson Ude, a former Director of Strategy and Communication under Jonathan for defamation instead of referring the case to the police.
Omokri in a series of tweet called on the Vice President to head to court if Jackson Ude had actually defamed him.
He said it is an abuse of office for the VP to ask the IGP, Ibrahim Adamu to investigate and intimidate Jackson Ude.
“Reno Omokri Pastor Yemi Hushibanjo should sue @JacksonPBN to court for slander. That is the behaviour of an innocent man. Why petition @PoliceNG ? Did the suspended Chairman of @OfficialEFCC, Magu, pay you ₦4 billion? If it is truly a lie, then head to court,
“It is abuse of office for so called pastor @ProfOsinbajo to ask the IGP of @PoliceNG to investigate @JacksonPBN If VP Osinbajo is sure Magu didn’t pay him ₦4 billion, as alleged, then he should sue him for slander, rather than use the police to intimidate him”, he said.
Meanwhile, the office of the Vice President has denied all the allegations, claiming they are nothing but total falsehood.
