Former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has dismissed claims by former Kaduna Governor Nasir El-Rufai that the cabinet of President Bola Tinubu is being dominated by Yorubas as ‘lies.’
He however added that if the domination by a particular region is the reason for the rapid growth the country is experiencing, then Nigeria should keep having whichever tribe that will make it move forward.
This was contained in a statement on his X handle on Tuesday, December 31.
The statement reads: “First of all, Nasir el-Rufai lied about the so-called Yorubanisation of government under President Tinubu. But if Yorubanisation can make:
“Port Harcourt Refinery work, Warri Refinery work, Local Government Autonomy a reality, Student Loans a reality, Passport scarcity a thing of the past, New Minimum Wage of ₦70,000 a fact, Federal Allocation to states double
“The Nigerian Stock Exchange achieved her highest record of crossing the 100,000 All Share Index in 2024 and recording a trading volume of ₦3.98 trillion, thus overtaking Zimbabwe as Africa’s most profitable market
Work on the promised 700-km Lagos-Calabar Coastal Highway project commence Nigeria’s trade surplus an all-time high of ₦20 trillion for 2024.
“The most notorious bandit kingpins, including Ali Kachala, Boderi Isyaku, and Sani Dangote, be killed, which has resulted in a marked decrease inncidents of insecurity. ₦50,000 Presidential Conditional Grant Scheme to make businesses a reality. The wiping out of Christian communities in Southern Kaduna is history
The abduction of school children is a bygone era.
“Then Nigeria should have more Yorubanisation, Hausanisation, Igbonisation, Fulanisation, and any nisation that would make Nigeria work for Nigerians!”
