A former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Reno Omokri has taken a swipe at President Muhammadu Buhari’s official declaration to re-contest in 2019.
Omokri in a series of tweet on his official Twitter handle on Monday compared Buhari’s chances of being re-elected into office as Nigeria’s President with the height of Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai.
It is a good thing that it was @Elrufai who announced President @MBuhari‘s second term because his chances of re-election is as tall as Elrufai. A man whose supporters can’t declare one thing he has initiated and completed has declared us all fools by this 2nd term declaration.

Since Buhari hasn’t initiated and completed even one project as #BuhariChallenge proves, I urge him to use 2019 election to redeem himself. Initiate and complete a free election and give Nigerians the opportunity to fulfill their desire to retire you from politics next February!

The man knew that his 2nd term declaration is unpopular, unpleasant and unpalatable to the vast majority of Nigerians which is why he ran away to London as soon as he announced the news. One would have thought he is contesting for @Theresa_May’s job the way he dashes to the UK.
Recall that President Buhari officially announced his intention to seek re-election in 2019.
The president made his plan known to the National Executive Committee of the All Progressives Congress.
