A former social media aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Mr. Reno Omokri, has mocked the deposed Emir of Kano, Muhammad Sanusi II, over his ordeal.

Omokri said Sanusi as the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria in 2014 falsely stated that $20bn was missing from the nation’s coffers.

He said the scandal contributed to the eventual defeat of Jonathan in 2015.

In a post on Instagram, Omokri said,

“Last year I said everyone who falsely accused former President Jonathan would pay for it.

“Sanusi Lamido Sanusi is a liar and a most manipulative individual who deliberately lied against ex-President Jonathan to forestall him and facilitate the election of General Muhammadu Buhari.

“Well, he has his Buhari. Is he happy? He should find time to read Galatians 6:7-8. One by one, the God that Jonathan kneels to pray to will vindicate him.”
