Omokri, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), criticised those he insinuated wished the naira, the currency of Africa’s largest economy, to depreciate.
He said going by the purported progress made under the present government, President Tinubu “is gradually making us feel proud to be Nigerians again”.
Omokri expressed his thoughts via his verified X (formerly Twitter) handle on Saturday, April 13,
His post reads in full:
“The Naira is now the world’s best-performing currency, bar none, according to global investment bank, Goldman Sachs.
“In the Northwest, bandits are now being kidnapped themselves by our military and are being tried and imprisoned. (Buhari never sent any bandit to prison).
“Every weekday is now a working day in the Southeast. Sit at home has turned to sit in the office!
“Boko Haram is now reduced as a threat in the Northeast.
“The coastal highway is becoming a reality, and the Abuja metro is now ready for commissioning.
“Fuel importation has reduced by more than 50%.
“The Dangote and Port Harcourt Refineries are crashing the price of diesel and by May, Premium Motor Spirit will follow.
“The federal government has negotiated direct Lagos-London flights for Air Peace.
‘Our GDP is now growing at 3.4%.
“And passport shortages are now a thing of the past, as Nigerians now get their passports quickly and easily.
“Say what you will about Tinubu, but you cannot deny that the President is gradually making us feel proud to be Nigerians again. If God spares my life, my party and I will challenge him in 2027. Until then, I will commend him when he dies well. And he is doing well. One year of Tinubu has brought more progress to Nigeria than eight years of Buhari. Emi lo so be!”
