Reno Omokri Predicts Tinubu’s Re-election in 2027 with Ronaldo-Inspired Gesture
Political Commentator Sparks Debate with Bold 4+4 Hand Sign
Nigerian political commentator Reno Omokri has stirred social media discussions by combining his admiration for football star Cristiano Ronaldo with a bold political prediction about Nigeria’s 2027 elections.
The former presidential aide was photographed beside a life-sized Ronaldo replica while flashing the “4+4” hand gesture – a political symbol indicating support for a second presidential term. This represents Omokri’s belief that President Bola Tinubu will secure re-election despite current economic challenges.
Football Passion Meets Political Forecasting
Known for his vocal admiration of Cristiano Ronaldo’s discipline and work ethic, Omokri surprised followers by blending sports fandom with political messaging. The gesture comes amid widespread criticism of Tinubu’s administration over Nigeria’s economic struggles since his May 2023 inauguration.
Omokri maintains that Tinubu is being unfairly blamed for systemic issues and needs time for reforms to take effect. His recent post serves as both a show of loyalty and a political forecast, as reported by PUNCH.
Mixed Reactions from Nigerians
The post has drawn polarized responses:
“We understand you… you are making Nigeria hell because of your selfish interest,” tweeted @maduna637880.
“Please relocate your family back to Nigeria and witness the greatness of your boss’s achievements,” challenged @Binhussaini01.
However, some users echoed Omokri’s support:
“My vote will affirm 4+4,” declared @DukeofGinsau.
“CR7 is a G.O.A.T just like Jagaban 4+4,” posted @Sarkinrafi3, comparing Ronaldo to Tinubu.
Defending Tinubu Amid Criticism
Omokri has consistently defended Tinubu against criticism, including recent calls for impeachment over the Rivers state emergency declaration. He previously criticized Dr. Reuben Abati’s impeachment suggestion as reported by Legit.ng.
As Nigeria’s political landscape evolves, Omokri’s blend of sports fandom and political prognostication continues to generate discussion about the country’s future leadership.
