Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has said President Bola Tinubu has been dutiful to Nigerians and deserves re-election in 2027.
Omokri, a prominent social media personality, who was a guest on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Friday, August 29, monitored by Legit.ng, insisted that Tinubu should be supported by well-meaning Nigerians in the 2027 election.
He said:
“I see President Bola Tinubu as somebody who deserves reelection and the reason why is just very clear: This is a man, in two years, he has added $67 billion to out gross domestic product (GDP). It has never happened before in Nigeria. This was a country that used to record serious trade deficit.
“Right now, we’ve got a trade surplus from last year (2024), about 14 billion dollars. Now, you saw what the Dr. Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, director-general of the World Trade Organisation (WTO), said, ‘he (Tinubu) stabilised the economy’.”
Omokri continued:
“A lot of people don’t understand this. They think that naira under Muhammadu Buhari was, I think, about N400 to a dollar. They don’t realise that it was not the true value of the naira. The naira was being subsidised. The Central Bank of Nigeria was spending N1.5 billion dollars every month. And this was not money that we had; it was money that we were borrowing.
“The man (Tinubu) has floated the naira; we have done away with that. And we see that even states right now, some of them are getting triple (in federal allocation). So, the incidences of owing salaries at state level has almost been eliminated.”
According to Omokri, Tinubu promised during the campaign for the 2023 election to do four things: devolve power to local governments, remove fuel subsidy, float the naira, and give student loans, which he has fulfilled.15 MINUTES VIDEO – No Way She Does This In Public!!, Lagos Lady Caught In The Public Bus With Boyfriend 😲
He concluded: “I see no reason why this man (Tinubu), based on what he has delivered should not be re-elected.”
