Former Presidential Aide to former President Jonathan, Reno Omokri, has described former President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration as the worst thing that ever befell Nigeria.
Omokri who made the claim via X on Thursday, stressed that Buhari’s administration was worse than colonialism in the country.
According to him, Buhari borrowed more money than former Nigerian leaders like Tafawa Balewa, Aguiyi Ironsi, Yakubu Gowon, Olusegun Obasanjo, Yar’Adua, and Goodluck Jonathan.
Omokri however regretted that despite the huge debt Buhari incurred during his tenure, the former President still printed the naira “erratically and illegally.”
The former Presidential Aide further claimed that everything Buhari touched “dies.”
“The worst thing that ever befell Nigeria is Buhari. Buhari was worse than colonialism. The fellow just gave us hopelessly aimless leadership for eight years. He borrowed more money than Balewa, Ironsi, Gowon, Murtala, Obasanjo, Shagari, Babangida, Shonekan, Abacha, Abdulsalami, Yar’adua and Jonathan combined.
“Please try to understand me. When you combine what every past leader before Buhari borrowed and add it all up, it is not up to what Buhari borrowed.
“After borrowing and sorrowing, the same Buhari began to print the Naira erratically and illegally. There is a condition known as a negative human spirit. Often, those it affects are not conscious of it. Buhari has it.
“When he became President, Nigeria was buoyant, and Buhari was poor. Today, the reverse is the case. It is Buhari that is now financially buoyant, while Nigeria is poor. I pray that, as a nation, we get healed from Buhari’s NHS. Buhari has the Midas Touch in reverse. Everything he touches dies. No wonder Trump called him “lifeless,” Omokri tweeted.
