The Special Assistant to President Goodluck Jonathan on New Media, Reno Omokri has faulted the popularity of presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari on the social media.
He argued that the popularity of Buhari on social media was bought through sponsored posts, stressing that it is a cheap way of getting followership. He also shared a post on his twitter handle to corroborate his argument.
“It shows the level of hypocrisy and deceit. Anybody can grow followership with adverts but a true proof of popularity on social media should be organic. The almost two million followers of President Goodluck Jonathan are organic, a show of the love of Nigerians for him and his administration,” he said.
Omokri noted that it is wrong to compare the popularity of President Jonathan on social media with that of Buhari. “There is no basis to compare the two because they are miles apart. President Jonathan enjoys the support of Nigerians as evident by the millions of Nigerians that follow his official Facebook account, Goodluck Jonathan. The number of likes, comments and shares of his posts is commendable. I am not sure that Buhari has up to 60,000 likes on Facebook with the money spent so far by his camp to boost his popularity on social media.”
President Jonathan is verified on Facebook where he has a following of 1,740,124 while Buhari is not verified and has 51,536 followers on Facebook. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday

ReplyDeleteWhy can't you APC agents be reasonable and civil for at least ones to verify issues before attacking. You are all same like Lai Mohammed and Amechi who never verify nor investigate before firing wrongly. Is it lack of shame or conscience or over desperation that is causing all these with APC team? I need ans. Omokiri has rolled out statistics which verifiable, why not go these contenders facebook to check how wrong or right Omokiri was, before insulting him? Are you all always like this? God save Nigeria from this raging virus call APC.
DeleteOmokiri that is the truth, forget APC noise makers and paper/media tigers. Who no real facts.
ReplyDeletePDP is really frustrated.
ReplyDeleteSurprised that Omokiri fails to see the handwritings on the wall. The fake will surely transform to reality come February, then you will know how fake it is.
