Former presidential aide, Mr Reno Omokri has faulted claims by president Muhammadu Buhari’s senior special assistant that the President is fit to contest for second term because he walked 800m.
The former presidential aide said it was wrong for Mr Garba Shehu to try to sell Buhari on the account that he can ‘walk’ not ‘work’.
Mr Omokri, who has been a major critic of the present administration said Garba sells Buhari to Nigerians not for the economy he savaged, nor the jobs he created but because he walked 800 meters.
He said these via some tweets on Tuesday, stressing that a candidate should be sold by his achievements not by his trekking feat.
He wrote:
.@GarShehu says @MBuhari is good for a 2nd term not because of the economy he gave Nigeria (he wrecked it) not for the security he gave (Nigeria is insecure), not for the jobs he gave Nigeria (we lost 11 million jobs under him). But because he walked 800 meters today #RenosDarts

.@GarShehu says because Buhari walked for 800 meters today he is ready for a 2nd term. How can you sell a candidate by his walking? What about his achievements? I jog 5 miles daily. Going by Garba‘s logic, I am better suited to govern Nigeria than President Buhari! #RenosDarts
