Ex-aide to ex -President Goodluck Jonathan , Mr . Reno Omokri, has said that President Muhammadu Buhari must be congratulated because he has set what Omokri described as “ a new Guinness World Record. ”
Omokri noted that “ Buhari has become the first elected president of a country to become resident of another nation while still in power. ”
He derided, albeit sarcastically, those who say Mr . President has no achieved anything. “ Shame on all those haters who say President Buhari has not achieved anything in over two years of being in office . Is this not an achievement?” Omokri wrote.
He also condemned those he described as “shameless critics” who compare American President Donald Trump to Buhari , arguing that “ the two of them are not mates at all . ”
In the article which has been trending on social media , Omokri wrote, “ Not only is President Muhammadu Buhari older than President Donald Trump , in a comparison between them on an elementary matter like jobs, we find that according to the latest US job report from the United States Department of Labour, the US economy has added 1 , 074 , 000 (jobs ) under President Trump , while , according to the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics, the Nigerian economy lost 4 . 58 million jobs in President Buhari ’ s first year!
“This is no mean task ! It is easy to do what Trump did and make jobs appear, but it is much harder to do what President Buhari has done and make jobs that someone produced disappear!”
Noting that “President Muhammadu Buhari continues to make London Nigeria’ s new Federal Capital Territory, ” Omokri said that Buhari ’ s “ rapidly shrinking horde of supporters want us to feel sorry for him by selling the narrative that what is happening to him could happen to anyone . ”
Insisting that “President Buhari does not deserve our sympathy, ” he recalled that “ when the shoe was on the other foot , he (Buhari ) called on the Executive Council of the Federation to declare the late President Umaru Yar’ adua incapacitated and failing that, for the Senate to impeach him . He went on to ask, “ Is the Presidency not ashamed to call President Muhammadu Buhari ‘ a private citizen’? He is staying at ‘ Abuja House, ’ not ‘ Buhari ’ s House; and we the citizens of Nigeria are paying for his treatment .
“He is NOT a private citizen . Yesterday, he released a statement condemning the Ozubulu massacre and assuring us of our safety. Which private citizen does that ?
“Nigeria is tired of a part -time President. Nigeria is tired of a freelance President. Nigeria is tired of a private -citizen President!”
