Former presidential spokesman, Reno Omokri, has asked Nigerians to direct their grievances over the country’s economic situation towards President Muhammadu Buhari, whom they elected as their leader.
He said rather than venting their anger on fellow private citizen and singer, David Adeleke, better known as Davido, over the nation’s sorry state, such should be reserved for the President.
The Punch had earlier reported that the Afro-pop singer bought a luxury Lamborghini Aventador worth over N300,000,000 as an early Christmas gift for himself.
However, the singer, on Wednesday, received knocks from Twitter fans after he lamented the cost of clearing his Lamborghini at the Nigerian port.
The Afro-pop singer had called for prayers for the country as he decried the amount he had to pay for the clearance.
“You don’t even wanna know how much I just paid to clear my Lambo. Pray for Nigeria…Jesus,” he tweeted early Wednesday.
But as Davido lamented the price for his Lamborghini clearance, fans tackled him for complaining, while there were people who didn’t even have food to eat.
However, Omokri while defending the singer in a series of tweets on his Twitter handle, said Davido has been more useful to the country than the elected president and other officials.
He tweeted, “Rather surprised at the hard knocks Davido got over the Lamborghini he bought with His Own Money. I’d have thought if there were hard knocks, it would be reserved for General Buhari, who bought a ₦280 million Mercedes-Maybach with Your Money, yet refused to perform. (Punch)
