Falz's knee surgery at 33 makes me rethink Tinubu's mobility issues– Reno Omokri

Former political aide to Ex- president of Nigeria Goodluck Jonathan has criticized Nigerians for mocking President –elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu over his ill health.

Mr Omokri spoke out after the news that rapper Falz whose real name is Folarin Falana had knee surgery in UK broke out on social media.

He said the news of the surgery conducted on the singer made him to start thinking about the health condition of Tinubu and how Nigerians has been mocking him because of it.

Omokri also wished that the presidential Election Tribunal will overturn the victory of Tinubu in the presidential election. According to him, 14000 polling units had manual accreditation which against the electoral act and also the president-elect has a history as a cartel leader which is an embarrassment to Nigeria.

Reno omokri in his tweet on Saturday night said: 

"Last year, many Nigerians mocked Tinubu for his mobility issues. But seeing a young artiste like Falz undergo surgery on his knees makes me rethink Tinubu’s mobility issues.

“I hope the Presidential Election Petition Court overturns his election as President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria for two reasons. First, his electoral ‘victory’ went against the Electoral Act because almost 14,000 polling units had manual accreditation, which is against section 47(3). Second is that his history as a cartel leader is an embarrassment to Nigeria.

“Having said that, maybe it was wrong to have mocked him over his health issues, of which he has gotten his mobility back. If it can happen to Folarin Falana at 33, it should not have been seen as strange for it to happen to Bola Tinubu at 71. And it can happen to anybody at any time.

“May God forgive all of us who erroneously made an issue of that, and may He grant Folarin good health to continue his work of advancing Nigeria through music and political activism. In Yeshua’s Name, I pray"
