Reno Omokri, a former spokesperson to former President Goodluck Jonathan, has verbally attacked bloggers who quote his words out of context.
The Rights Activist and self-acclaimed Tormentor of President Muhammadu Buhari, went to his Twitter handle some hours ago to quickly address gossip site operators to be mindful of how they interpret his posts.
Earlier, Omokri made a tweet about Oby Ezekwesili, on how intelligent she is but not beautiful in the face.
Some blogs left the part where he emphasised her intelligence but hammered on why he described the female activist as not beautiful.
Reno Omokri’s Tweet:
Replying to his critics, he said “Oby is very, very intelligent and has some principles. But she does not have a beautiful face! Truth is bitter but better.”
He, however, pointed out that writers like screaming headlines. “I was actually responding to a comment truthfully. I stand by my words. It is what it is,” he added.
Also, one @ayodejibaritone responded to @renoomokri‘s tweet, asking the activist whether he sees himself as a handsome man.
Replying, Reno Omokri said, “I know I am not handsome. I don’t pretend to be or advertise myself as such. Both Oby and I are blessed with beauty in other areas and we are both using it very well. The point I am making is that not being beautiful is not a disability.
