A former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has said that any Nigerian who is not disabled should not expect any palliatives from the government.
According to Omokri, President Bola Tinubu should only
consider giving money to school children, pregnant women, the elderly and
disabled, insisting that every other person should either work, start farming,
or die.
Omokri stated this during an interview with TVC, a video
clip of which he shared on his official X account.
“[Bringing back the Naira to where it was two or three years
ago] is not going to happen. Two or three years ago, the Naira was not
floated,” he began.
“So what you had two or three years ago was an artificial
Naira. The CBN was spending 1.5 billion dollars every month to give you that
rate.
“So stop expecting that you’re going to have that same rate
of two or three years ago. It is gone forever. That was not a real Naira. That
was a Naira that was being spended by the CBN.
“We were not spending 1.5 billion dollars on education or
infrastructure. We were spending it defending the Naira. That is why we’re
where we are today. The Buhari administration technically almost destroyed the
country.
“We are now reviving ourselves. What the government needs to
do now is give free education from nursery all the way to secondary school.
“Also another thing the government should do is that
everybody from 65 years old, if you’re not earning a pension, you get to be
getting something like N35,000 so that you can buy food.
“Every other person in Nigeria, as long as you’re not
disabled, the government should not give you a dime. If you want to die, die!
That’s what it is.”
