Nigerian-born Adewale “Wally” Adeyemo, the United States deputy treasury secretary, is currently in Nigeria as part of efforts by the US to strengthen economic ties between both countries.

Adeyemo became the first African American to hold the position after he was confirmed by the US senate in 2021.

The US official’s first port of call was the Lagos Business School (LBS), where he highlighted some of the steps needed for the type of growth that creates economic opportunity for the Nigerian people.

Adeyemo said the administration of President Joe Biden is willing to help Nigeria take critical steps to sustain foreign investments.

Reno Omokri has vowed to never let Peter Obi become President of Nigeria.

He wrote:

“Peter Obi, I am waiting for you in 2027 and 2031. God sparing my life. Because of what you mannerless fascist horde did to my then one-year-old daughter and the rest of my family, I have vowed that you will never smell the Presidency. Never.

“Nobody has suffered from your ill-mannered followers like my family and I. And even if it means spending everything I have, I will do it to ensure that Nigeria never makes the mistake of electing you as her President, now and forever!

Wow, Reno sounds like he has a personal beef with Peter Obi
