Reno Omokri, a former presidential adviser, criticized famous novelist Chimamanda Adichie for his letter to US President Joe Biden.
According to reports, Adichie encouraged Biden not to recognize the conclusion of the February 25th presidential election in an open letter on Thursday.
The literary icon also urged US President Donald Trump not to recognize Bola Tinubu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as Nigeria’s President-elect.
According to Adichie, the presidential election was jeopardized not by technical flaws but by deliberate manipulation, and the process was tarnished by bloodshed.
President Biden, she warned, will taint America’s self-proclaimed dedication to democracy by congratulating Tinubu as the winner of the 2023 presidential election.
However, in a tweet on Thursday, Omokri warned Biden not to take what Adichie said seriously because she is partisan and supports Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi.
The former presidential adviser stated that the novelist would not be neutral in her appraisal of the 2023 presidential election as a result of her partiality.
He wrote: “I hope @TheAtlantic know that Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is not some unbiased concerned Nigerian? She endorsed Peter Obi, and called him “my President” before the election. She is partisan. @JoeBiden and the @StateDept would be wise to take her OpEd with a pinch of salt!”
