Nigerians won’t vote El-Rufai, Obi – Omokri

Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has lauded the progresses achieved by the President Bola Tinubu-led government within 2023 and now.

According to Omokri, Nigerians have benefited from these progresses and would not jeopardise the progresses by supporting either the former Kaduna State Governor, Nasir El-Rufai, or the former Labour Party Presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

Omokri recounted the successes achieved by the Bola Tinubu led-administration, adding that more regions now have individual regional development commissions to accelerate development in their zones.

He stated this in a statement he shared via his X handle on Wednesday, March 12.

The statement reads: “The Sokoto-Badagry Highway has reached Kebbi State and is progressing daily. The Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway is now approaching Ondo State. Fuel prices are down and still dropping to an average of ₦800 per litre. Four hundred thousand students are accessing student loans. The Minimum Wage is now ₦70,000. Food prices are dropping slightly, while inflation reduced seismically from 34.80% to 24.48% in February 2025. Power generation is at an all-time high of 6,003MW, the highest in our history.

“Federal allocations to states have doubled and, in some cases, tripled. Deaths from terrorism and insecurity are at their lowest level since 2014, even as our GDP grew by 3.8% in 2024, while Nigeria recorded a 209.6% increase in our trade surplus to ₦18.86 trillion in 2024 from ₦6.09 trillion in 2023.

“More regions now have individual regional development commissions to accelerate development in their zones.

“Nigerians are earning more than they did in 2023. Students are learning more than they did in 2023. Nigerians are safer than they were in 2023. Nigeria generates more power than it did in 2023.

“And you think Nigerians will jeopardise all these progresses to vote in Nasir el-Rufai to turn us into one big Southern Kaduna Genocidal Graveyard, or Peter Obi, who kowtows to IPOB, sides with fake drug peddlers and never built a single school for his eight years as a governor of Anambra?”
