Reno Omokri, a former Presidential aide, appears to have sided with the Lagos State All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, just 24 hours before the March 18 gubernatorial and House of Assembly elections.
According to NIGERIA, Sanwo-olu, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour of the Labour Party, Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran of the Peoples Democratic Party, and others will compete for the 7 million registered voters in Lagos State’s 37 Local Government Areas.
Omokri criticised the performance of Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi during his eight-year tenure as governor of Anambra State in a tweet.
He cited Sanwo-accomplishments Olu’s as world-class railways and solid roads, and urged Lagosians to vote for parties other than the LP.
He wrote:
Love him or hate him, Sanwoolu built world class railways and solid roads. What does Obi have to show for his 8 years in Anambra, other than a beer brewery that he has interest in? If you can’t vote PDP on Saturday, March 18, jejely vote any other party but Labour.

In another post, Reno claimed that voting for Rhodes-Vivour would be detrimental to Lagos, claiming that he is not a viable candidate.
Those promoting the LP candidate, he claims, have an agenda that will be detrimental to Lagos State’s peace, progress, and unity.
He wrote:
Please do NOT vote for Gbadebo Rhodes Vivour. I listened to him, and I am convinced that electing him will seriously damage Lagos. By himself, he is not a viable candidate.
But beyond him, those promoting him on a godfather level, and others promoting him as foot soldiers, have an agenda that will not be conducive for the peace, progress and unity of Lagos State. If you love me and what I stand for, reject him and what he and his godfathers stand for. You may now insult.
