Social influencer, Reno Omokri, has explained why things are hard in Nigeria.
Omokri gave this explanation in a post via his official X account.
He noted that things are very difficult because the Federal Government has put an end to fuel subsidy, adding naira has also been floated.
Speaking on why Nigeria is broke, the social-political analyst pointed out that former president Mohammad Buhari borrowed more than any previous governments combined.
Omokri wrote,”Things are hard in Nigeria because fuel subsidy has been ended, and the Naira has been floated. And the reason why is that Nigeria is broke. And Nigeria is broke because General Buhari borrowed more than all previous governments combined.
“We cannot keep borrowing to consume. Please fact-check me. If we keep borrowing, we will only pass the hardship to our children. Let us bear it now and pass prosperity to the next generation.
Speaking on celebrities, he said, “Many celebrities currently doing videos just want to trend. They neither understand the issues Nigeria is facing nor do they care. Others are unhappy with the result of the last election and are weaponising the current hardship to bring down the current administration. Listen, I, Reno Omokri, urge you to stand with Nigeria. Not with Tinubu. Tinubu is just a temporary occupant of Aso Rock. Whether in 2027 or 2031, he will leave one day.
While proferring solutions to the issues, Reno said, “Nobody is coming to save Nigeria. It is only Nigerians that will save Nigeria. Local brands may or may not be as good as foreign ones, but with continued patronage, they will improve in quality.
“Buy them, and your Naira will rise along with your personal happiness and the international rating of the green Nigerian passport. Your value is tied to Nigeria’s value. Buy Nigerian and Nigeria’s foreign reserves, trade balances, and debt to GDP ratio will automatically improve.”
“We must do what India, China and South Korea did when they were in our shoes and #GrowNairaBuyNaija”, he added
