In a post shared on his X page (formerly known as Twitter) @renoomokri, he advised that the Labour Party and the New Nigeria People's Party (NNPP) should take to Atiku Abubakar’s advice and merge with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
According to Omokri, the failure of the LP and NNPP to merge with the PDP will result in President Tinubu’s re-election.
“The sacking of Governor Abba Yusuf of Kano by the Court of Appeals has made Bola Tinubu's re-election in 2027 more certain. Why? Because Kano has the highest registered voters of any state and will give at least two million votes to Presidential candidates in 2027. Sadly, whoever is Governor tends to direct where those votes go.
If the NNPP and Labour Party know what is good for them, they should merge with the PDP as Waziri Atiku suggested. Because if they do not merge, then Tinubu will re-emerge. It is just common sense. Although common sense is not so common in Nigerian politics!”
