Popular social media influencer and sociopolitical activist, Reno Omokri, has claimed that President Bola Tinubu achieved what would have taken his predecessor, Muhammadu Buhari, to do in one year in just a week
Taking to his X page (formerly Twitter), Omokri also said Tinubu’s series of achievements have shown that all the presidential candidates in the February 25, 2023 election were better than Buhari.
The former aide to former President Goodluck Jonathan went on to accuse Tinubu’s men of not projecting these achievements to the world the way they should.

Speaking via his social media page, Omokri tweeted: “In one week, Tinubu has achieved what Buhari would have taken one year to complete. This vindicates what I said during the campaigns, that any of the major Presidential candidates would have been better than Buhari.
“The downside is that the administration is not projecting these achievements. They probably need to understand that effective rebranding of Nigeria will only take place when we project positive things that are already happening. If you don’t blow your trumpet, your enemies will blow your downfall.”
He also listed the achievements of Tinubu in one week below:
•Suspended an errant minister
•Summoned another minister over a controversial contract
•Reduced his travel entourage and dramatically cut costs
•Dismissed two CEOs of federal parastatals for gross negligence
•Acted on the six weeks degree for cash program by blocklisting Benin and other nations
•Announced plans to build a new Chinese-built steel plant in Nigeria
•Launched the automated passport portal
•Cleared the ₦12 billion outstanding for the Super Eagles and other national teams
•Began paying the wage support benefits to civil servants
•Disbursed ₦105.5 billion for 266 road repairs
•Intervened to bring peace in Sierra Leone after the foiled coup attempt.
