Reno Omokri, a former aide to
ex-president Goodluck Jonathan has said the only way Nigerians will accept
President Muhammadu Buhari is when he reveals the nature of his illness.
Omokri, a staunch critic of
Buhari’s government, however, congratulated the president on his return from
the United Kingdom.
The former presidential aide
further explained that being a critic of the president does not mean hatred for
him but that every democratic government needs a political opposition.
Omkoti on his Twitter page wrote
“I speak the truth about Buhari. No one can argue that he is not an ineffective
leader who should go and God willing, will go in 2019. But he is first a human
being. I felicitate with him as he returns from his medical trip to London and
pray that his health continues to improve.
“If Buhari wants Nigerians to
open their hand and vote for him, he should first open his mouth and tell us
what is wrong with him. Why does he frequently reside in The UK when he should
regularly preside in Abuja. That, and what he has achieved in 3 years is what
we want to know.
“I am probably one of President
@MBuhari’s most consistent critics, but I wish him well as he return from The
UK. Political opposition isn’t hatred. It is a necessary ingredient of
democracy without which the government will soon become dictatorial and take
the people for granted.
“I welcome President @MBuhari
back to Nigeria from medical trip to UK. I commend him for honestly admitting
the reason for his trip to Nigerians despite the sensitivity of the issue and
the type of politics we play in Nigeria. Finally, I pray for God to grant him
good health.”
