Nigerian comedian Funny Bone has lambasted a former presidential aide, Reno Omokri for trolling 2023 presidential candidate of Labour Party, Peter Obi in a recent post online.
Omokri had mocked Obi for saying that he will not divorce his wife if she cheats on him.
Omokri made reference to the s3x scandal involving Baltasar Ebang Engonga of Equatorial Guinea.
Recall that Baltasar Ebang Engonga, the Director General of Equatorial Guinea’s National Financial Investigation Agency (ANIF) was caught on tape engaging in s3xual activities with multiple women, including his brother’s wife, cousin, and the sister of Equatorial Guinea’s President.
Speaking on the scandal, Omokri said if one doesn’t care if his wife is having affairs outside, how will he care if his officials are stealing government money? He questioned if the president values government money more than his wife’s fidelity as he pondered on why the bank bears that name.
“If you don’t care if your wife is having affairs outside, how will you care if your officials are stealing government money? Look at the matter rationally. Are you saying that you will value government money more than your wife’s fidelity? Then why did you name your bank Fidelity Bank? If that is what fidelity means to you, then is our money safe in your bank?
A President who does not care if his wife has affairs outside will breed many Balthazar Ebang Engongas around him. It is a very indecent thing to have said and is indicative of disrespect for the sanctity of marriage. Such a person lacks the moral authority to be the President of Nigeria and may want to move to a country where his lax morals align with their way of life.
To even say such a thing in public is shameful!”.
Reacting to it, via his comment section, Funny Bone lashed out at Omokri.
He wrote:
“Reno!!
This is beneath you.
Too low for your standards.
Too low. Learn to let some things slide.
This one, no enter, bro”.
