Author and former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, Pastor Reno Omokri, has said that President Muhammadu Buhari has been jolted by news of former Vice President Atiku Abubakr resigning from the All Progressive Congress (APC).
Pastor Omokri also said that President Buhari must be so jittery that he rushed to set up a committee to increase minimum wage, a ploy he said is being used by the president perhaps to bribe Nigerians.
According to him, “On the same day that @Atiku resigned from the APC, President Buhari sets up a committee to increase the minimum wage. Coincidence or signs that the President is jittery over his impending 2019 defeat and wants to bribe Nigerians with a salary increase?”
Atiku Abubakar had, earlier today, announced his resignation from the All Progressives Congress (APC), saying the party has failed Nigerians and has equally instituted a draconian regime that has continued to clamp down on democracy in the country.
Atiku also accused the APC of having no regard for the youths, especially as he said the party has no single youth in its cabinet, wondering how the leaders of tomorrow are not a priority for the APC.
