Reno Omokri, former Presidential aide and social commentator, has asked the Labour Party‘s candidate in the 2023 Presidential election, Peter Obi, to stop distorting the facts about businesses leaving Nigeria.
Gatekeepers News reports that Omokri, while reacting on Monday to Obi’s Twitter discussion about businesses departing Nigeria, maintained that these businesses weren’t leaving solely because of Nigeria but were grappling with challenges stemming from the global economic conditions.
He said: “Peter Obi told so many lies in that #PeterObiOnParallelFacts space.
“Thame GlaxoSmithKline. They did not just leave Nigeria. They left India, Egypt, Kenya and other countries.
“India has one of the best economies in the world. Nigeria’s economy has just been upgraded by Standard and Poor’s and Moody’s. Yet, they shut down their plants in Nigeria and India.
“Why did GSK leave? Read their report. They left as part of their global strategy to re-jig their business model. It is now cheaper for them to produce in England and export to other nations.
“Obi lied. Heavy Gbajue!”
