Reno Omokri, a former aide of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has slammed the Minister of Transportation, Rotimi Amaechi, over his comment about the Goodluck Jonathan-led administration.
In a recent interview with Channels TV, Amaechi said Jonathan’s administration gave room for banditry as the money left behind by the latter when he left office in 2015 could not have sustained Nigeria for three weeks.
Reacting to the comment via his Instagram page, Reno, a media aide to Jonathan, described Amaechi as a “liar.”
He explained that Amaechi’s comment about the former president was in a bid to acquire the APC Vice Presidential slot for the 2023 general elections.
According to him, “this is exactly what Jonathan left behind on May 29, 2015, that Amaechi said could not sustain Nigeria for three weeks:
- Foreign reserve of $28.6 billion
- $2.2 billion in the Excess Crude Account
- $5.6 billion Nigeria Liquified Natural Gas Limited dividends
- Over $1 billion investments via the Nigeria Sovereign Investment Authority
“Rotimi Amaechi is just a useless liar who thinks he can get APC’s Vice Presidential slot by attacking former President Jonathan. 2023 is near. The whole of Nigeria will soon see what Buhari will leave behind, apart from? 40 trillion debt.
“Amaechi began life as Peter Odili’s houseboy, and that inferiority complex has refused to leave. Sadly, he has a perpetual problem with self-worth and Nigerians are cautioned not to take him seriously.”
