Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri has challenged the
Senior Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Media and Publicity,
Garba Shehu to reveal evidence of him (Reno) making money from the ordeal of
the abducted Daptchi school girl, Leah Sharibu.
Garba Shehu had in his reply to Omokri’s earlier challenge
asking him to spend a weekend in Borno State and get $50k, accused him of
making money from the ordeal of the schoolgirl who is currently in the
captivity of the Boko Haram insurgents.
Reno’s challenge followed Mr Garba’s claim that the
President deserves appreciation for tackling insecurity across the country.
Reacting, Reno urged the spokesman of President Buhari to
come up with evidence and make it public, stressing that his previous efforts
were to ensure the release of the schoolgirl.
Reno Omokri said, “If you have evidence that I have made
money from Leah Sharibu’s ordeal, please expose it. You have access to the
media.
“Alternatively, if any individual, church, foundation,
government or country has given me even one kobo for Leah, please speak now, or
forever remain silent.
“Leah Sharibu’s father, Nathan, did a video denouncing your
false allegation the last time you made this allegation last year. Rather than
make money from Leah, I wrote a book about her, which inspired a BBC
Documentary, and got the attention of the US government, and donated all the
proceeds to her parents, plus £4000.
“Having said that, the current issue is not about Leah
Sharibu. The issue is that you said, “Buhari deserves credit for tackling
insecurity”. If you really believe what you said, Garba, then I challenge you
to go to Bama in Borno, for a weekend, alone, without security. And I will pay
you $50,000.
“But if even you believe that my money is ‘blood money, then
do it because you believe “Buhari deserves credit for tackling insecurity”.
