Reno Omokri, a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has accused President Muhammadu Buhari of being responsible for the rise in cases of COVID-19 in Nigeria.
Omokri said if Buhari had listened to the advice of Atiku Abubakar, a former Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, presidential candidate, COVID-19 wouldn’t have risen to the level it is.

In a tweet, the former presidential aide insisted that Buhari’s refusal to close Nigeria’s airspace in February as advised by Atiku led to COVID-19 increase in the country.
According to Omokri, Buhari allegedly refused to close Nigeria’s airspace because his daughter and late Chief of Staff, Abba Kyari were abroad.
See his tweet below:
Dear General @MBuhari,
You are shedding crocodile tears. You caused the spread of #COVID19 in Nigeria by refusing to close Nigeria’s airspace in February, despite @Atiku asking you, because your daughter and Abba Kyari were abroad!#BuhariTormentor https://t.co/2T8PG2jGCz
