Reno Omokri, a leading member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has listed the achievements of President Bola Tinubu.

Omokri, a key ally of Atiku Abubakar, the PDP presidential candidate in the elections has thrown his support behind Tinubu.

He has in several posts defended the policies of Tinubu and was recently caught in a social media fight with another party chieftain, Dele Momodu.

In a post on his Facebook page, he lashed out at citizens who said the economic situation in Nigeria was similar to that of Kenya. Recall Kenyans hit the streets of Nairobi, protesting what they described as bad governance.

According to him, the instigators of the scheduled August 1 - 10 protest must consider the list below before embarking on any form of protest.
