Reno Omokri Challenges Peter Okoye on Peter Obi's Age

Reno Omokri, a political activist and author, criticized singer Peter Okoye, known as Mr P of the P-Square duo, after a video of Okoye campaigning for Peter Obi ahead of the 2023 presidential election resurfaced online. In the video, Okoye encouraged his fans to support Obi as a younger alternative for Nigeria's leadership.

On October 18, 2026, Omokri challenged Okoye's reasoning, stating that Obi, at 65 years old, and his running mate, who turned 70 that week, have a combined average age of 67.5 years. In contrast, President Bola Tinubu, at 74, and Vice President Shettima, at 60, average 67 years, making their ticket younger by Okoye's logic.

Omokri also highlighted the governance records of the candidates, attributing the Okoye brothers' success to economic foundations laid by Tinubu during his governorship in Lagos. He questioned Okoye about any power projects completed by Obi during his tenure and noted that both Okoye and Obi's families reside in Lagos rather than Anambra if Obi's record was exceptional.
