He stated this in a post via X handle (formerly known as Twitter) @renoomokri, on Monday, March 25.

Omokri said the guards on duty are mere pawns while the real culprits are the powerful people in Buhari's government.

“It is the Nigerian citizens who, according to Yemi Cardoso, the CBN governor, ferried $26 billion out of Nigeria in one year that would have organised the escape of Nadeem Anjarwalla from custody. They are powerful and influential people, and the threat to expose their names was just too much for them.”

He also mentioned that the minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, under Buhari’s government had an app for a cryptocurrency platform despite enforcing Buhari's ban on crypto.

He said he was not accusing Malami, but while the former minister was preventing ordinary people from accessing cryptocurrency, he himself had a crypto app on his phone

“Not that I am accusing him, but, Let us not forget so soon that when he announced that he had deleted his Twitter account after Buhari's #TwitterBan, the then Minister of Justice, Abubakar Malami, had an app for a cryptocurrency platform. And the funny thing is that the same Malami was enforcing Buhari's ban on crypto. He was preventing ordinary people from trading in crypto, yet had a crypto app on his phone.
“And you think someone like that will just sit down and fold his hands while Nadeem Anjarwalla exposes Nigerians laundering money with crypto?”
