Why does Obi take such delight in death and negativity? By Reno Omokri

Peter Obi calling the Supreme Court “reckless” over the judgment in the Rivers Local Government issue is an insult to the judiciary and sovereignty of Nigeria.
If anything is reckless, it is the “religious war” that Peter Obi plotted against the Muslim Ummah two years ago, as exposed in a leaked audio. Even more feckless was his refusal to apologise to the Muslim community, and instead, he started going around mosques during Ramadan last year pretending to sympathise with the very body of believers he was plotting to castrate politically.
The Supreme Court is one of the most critical institutions in Nigeria and is more or less a guarantor of the fidelity of our constitution and democracy. To undermine such a vital institution to our democracy by a man who unconstitutionally failed to hold local government elections in Anambra for many years while he was Governor is indeed a slap in the face of the rule of law.
Peter Obi thereafter accuses the Presidency and National Assembly of a “reckless neglect of serious governance is a grave disservice to the millions of Nigerians who deserve competent, accountable leadership focused on solving real problems.”
This is rich coming from a man who refused to build even one nursery, primary or secondary school or university yet invested Anambra State Government funds into a beer brewery in which he had a personal interest.
Apparently, building breweries for youths to get drunk is Peter Obi’s idea of ‘accountable leadership focused on solving real problems.’
No wonder poverty almost doubled under Peter Obi as Governor of Anambra.
Please fact-check me: Before Peter Obi was sworn in as Governor of Anambra, poverty in that state was 41.4%. However, under Mr. Obi, it grew to 53.7%, partly because Peter Obi refused to use the state’s allocations to build infrastructure, preferring to deposit them in his bank to yield interest that went into his pockets.
And now, this clown, who refuses to see any evil as long as it occurs in Igboland and who steadfastly is blind to any good that happens in other parts of Nigeria, has the guts to accuse the Tinubu administration of recklessness.
That is how he released a statement yesterday, almost celebrating the accidental deaths of passengers travelling on the Ilorin-Jebba Expressway.
Someone should stop drinking Peter Obi Hero beer before he writes his zero value statements. That way, he will stop being an Agbọ́tikúyọ̀ who rejoices over bad news and grieves over good reports.
Perhaps Peter Obi might want to consult a psychiatrist for his morbid interest in death and bad news, which is subconsciously expressed in his love for black mourning clothes.
