Reno Omokri Responds After Davido Nicknamed Him “Bingo”

Reno Omokri, Nigeria’s ambassador‑designate to Mexico, responded after singer Davido referred to him as “Bingo.”

According to DAILY POST, Omokri said the delay in his return to Mexico was due to the ongoing World Cup.

Davido reacted to Omokri’s claim in a trending social media post, calling him “Umu Bingo @renoomokri fowl.”

Omokri described Davido’s post as feedback and called it shocking.

On Tuesday, Omokri posted screenshots of Davido’s comment on his Instagram, saying the singer was upset because he had criticized Omokri for wearing a jacket with the names of abducted Oyo school children at the World Cup.

Reno wrote, “Dear Mr. David Adeleke AKA Davido, thank you for your feedback. I was rather surprised by your response to my post. Most shocking is your insult.”

“You are an international celebrity whom Nigeria is proud of. Coming to insult me on my Instagram profile with such vulgar words should be beneath you. Yes, I’m aware that you were upset at my appeal to you not to use an international platform, such as the 2026 FIFA World Cup, to give publicity to bandits and terrorists. I am also aware that Peter Obi praised you for doing that, which may have made you feel compelled to defend him.”

“I did that because while your intention may be good and you think you are pressuring the government, the actual effect of what you did is to give publicity to the terrorists and help them spread fear, recruit new members, and raise funds.”

“Meanwhile, IShowSpeed, an American at that same event, used the global stage of the World Cup to market Nigeria by wearing the jersey and speaking well about Nigeria.”
