Omokri commends Buhari over Nigeria Air

The Federal Government, led by President Muhammadu Buhari, has received praise from Reno Omokri for introducing Nigeria Air.

The sociopolitical pundit, a fervent opponent of Buhari, made the statement while downplaying accusations of the Nigerian administration regarding Nigeria Air.

Following the landing of the Nigeria Air plane, Nigerians have been accusing the Federal Government of engaging in fraudulent activities.

Nigerians complained about the plane since it was claimed that Ethiopian Airlines owned it.

However, Ethiopian Airlines was revealed to be a significant shareholder in Nigeria Air by Buhari’s Special Assistant on Digital Communications, Bashir Ahmad.

On the other hand, Omokri tweeted: “Emirate Airlines, that many Nigerians love to fly with, started off in 1985 with two airlines that Pakistan International Airlines donated to them.

Today, they are thriving. If there is something to criticise, please sòrò sóké. But do not just criticise because your party is not in government. Ruga was a bad idea. Arresting Nnamdi Kanu was a wrong move. The Northernisation of our National Security Council was a horrible thing to do. And we criticised all of those.

“But Nigeria Air is a good idea. Even starting it with a wet-leased aircraft is an even better idea than starting it with a new one. If the government does badly, let us cane them with koboko. But if they perform well, we should be objective and praise them with the same ferocity.”
