After His SHOCKING Statements Against INEC Over Declaring APC Winner Of Edo Election
Reno Omokri, a prominent political commentator, has called out Dele Momodu, a well- known journalist and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) chieftain, for his apparent double standards regarding the Independent National Electoral Commission’ s (INEC) handling of elections.
Omokri pointed out on his social media handle that Momodu had praised INEC after the PDP won the Osun State gubernatorial election, but is now condemning the commission for declaring the All Progressives Congress (APC) winner of the Edo State election. This sudden change in stance, according to Omokri, highlights the lack of political maturity in Nigeria.
” Under APC, INEC conducted a gubernatorial election in Osun State, and the PDP defeated the ruling APC. After that election, Dele Momodu praised INEC and publicly rejoiced with the winner. Today, the same Dele Momodu attacked INEC, claiming that the #EdoDecides24 election is ‘ distressing, disgusting and depressing’ , ” Omokri wrote.
Omokri’ s criticism centers on the perceived hypocrisy of Momodu’ s statements. He argues that democracy requires accepting both wins and losses, rather than altering one’ s stance based on personal preferences.
Dele Momodu, a respected journalist and publisher of Ovation International, has been vocal about his political views. He has written extensively on national issues in Nigeria and has been a strong advocate for democratic principles.
However, Omokri’ s comments highlight the need for consistency and objectivity in political discourse. By pointing out Momodu’ s apparent double standards, Omokri emphasizes the importance of accepting election outcomes, regardless of the winner.
