He recon that Atiku Abubakar, the PDP presidential candidate in the 2023 election, would be a better president. However, he added that the best way to unseat President Tinubu is not by digging into his academic records.

Why you should stop digging Tinubu's academic records, Omokri gives reason

Atiku has approached a US Court to compel the Chicago State University to allow him access to Tinubu's academic records, and his prayer was subsequently granted. In its response, Chicago State University reiterated its earlier position that it does not have copies of diploma certificates it issued to students.

The university's released record confirmed President Tinubu graduated in 1979.

But Omokri tweet reads in part:

"Accept it, and move on. You are in a hole. Stop digging. There are other and better ways to unseat Bola Tinubu democratically. Focus on that. But when you allow people like Rufai to mislead you, you will lose face with much of the public that does not believe Buhari died and was replaced by a Sudanese clone named Jubril."
