Stay Away From Reno - Charles Awuzie Warns Peter Obi

 




"Whoever knows Peter Obi should advise him to stay away from RENO. I saw through this guy many years ago but nobody believed me. This guy operates with DEEP serpentine intelligence  - quite commendable skill but dangerous to the simple minded. I know he knows I know him beyond his nuggets. Reno will use "he's my friend" to dilute Peter.


Peter Obi is smart - but he tries to play the good man. That's a weakness. He needs to toughen up. He needs to get ready to lose some friends. He needs to focus on his support base and understand that those who claim to be his friend but doesn't support him are his frienemies. He can reconcile with them after the elections. But he must not allow old relationships to interfere with this mission. 


I speak from experience. 


When I led a fierce reformation movement against Religious falsehood, I INTENTIONALLY severed old relationships. I knew that they will come back when we establish the truth we needed to establish. And it happened as planned. But if I held on to those relationships then, I would still have lost some of them but worse still, I would have lost myself. 


Someone close to Peter Obi should tell him that this is no longer about him - this has turned into a revolutionary movement to save Nigeria. 


He needs to toughen up. Reno is not his friend. Reno is Atiku's boy for now until Jonathan comes on board then the other side of Reno nobody knows will be revealed. 


Don't let empty nuggets deceive you and make you scream WISDOM where there's only manipulation. Stay focused on the goal - a new Nigeria. We miss it this time, we miss it for another 16 years. 


Someone close to Peter Obi should read this out to him.

People Can Believe Whatever They Want - Zicaloma

 


Recall That during the week, popular skit maker Isaac Aloma, aka Zicaloma, was accused of demanding for sex from male ‘actors’ he uses in his skits before working with them.


However, in an interview with Sunday Scoop, the comedian stated that the story was a mere fabrication. He said, “I really don’t want to talk about these things. I have been told that if people don’t talk about one, it means one is really not doing well. I don’t blame any blog for writing whatever they want; I blame people who give them audience, because they are just looking for ways to drive traffic to their blogs. I am not clearing any air. People can believe whatever they want to believe”


Aloma, who is a former lecturer, also stated that anybody who claims that he demanded sex from them should speak out. He added, “The best thing is for you to watch my skits. Anybody that looks like an up-and-coming comedian should be asked what they did for me to feature them. Everyone that becomes successful, most pass through a channel. I became successful because I put in hard work. I shot content for years without being recognised until it got to a point when I was recognised by people and my content started going viral.


“I work with anybody who I feel can deliver. I shoot most of my contents with celebrities. That does not negate the fact that I can work with someone who has just 20 followers. I don’t compromise my content for anything. Some people offer me money to feature in my skits but I tell them ‘no’ because I don’t like their acting.”


The skit maker also stated that he will not press charges against the blogger because the person is ‘anonymous’.
