Reno Omokri – “Why the South should remain in power”
Former Presidential aide and social media personality Reno Omokri gives reasons why the Southern part of the country should continue to hold power. In a tweet, he said,
”Should Power Return to the North In 2027? Nigeria’s independence did not start in 1999. Prior to 1999, Nigeria experienced twenty good years of Northern leadership, with only 83 days in between those twenty years given to the South when Chief Ernest Shonekan headed the !ll-fated Interim National Government.
In the nineteen years before that, the North enjoyed another fifteen years in power, with only four years to the South comprised of six months for Major General Johnson Aguiyi-Ironsi and three and a half years for General Olusegun Obasanjo.
In the sixty four years of Nigeria’s existence as an independent nation, the North has been in power for a total of forty six years, versus only eighteen for the South.
If you further break it down to elected civilian governments and military dictat0rships, the North has had twenty-one years of democratically elected leaders, including six years for Sir Abubakar Tafawa-Balewa, four years for President Shehu Shagari, three for President Umaru Musa Yar’adua, and eight for General Buhari.
This is compared to fourteen for the South, with eight years for President Obasanjo, five for President Goodluck Jonathan, and less than two for the incumbent. The North has also had twenty-five years of military d!ctatorship, comprising nine years for General Gowon, six months for General Murtala Muhammed, two years for General Buhari, eight years for General Babangida, five years for the butch3r, Abacha, and nine months for the blessed General Abdulsalami Abubakar.
This is versus only three and a half for the South, and three out of those three and a half years were not even deliberate. If Murtala had not been murd3red by his fellow Northerner, all that the South would have had would have been only six months!
As thoroughly us3less as General Buhari was, the South did not disturb his eight-year reign.
And why even remove President Tinubu? Our economy is growing at 3.46%. Our trade surplus is at a record high of ₦5.81 trillion for the third quarter. The Federation Account received an all-time high revenue of ₦3.134 trillion for November.
Nigeria is less ins3cure than it was under Buhari. Except there is something those paid to float that vacu0us argument are not saying, there is no reason to change a horse midstream.
Reno Omokri.”
