Former Special Assistant to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan on New Media, Reno Omokri, has again accused President Muhammadu Buhari of shielding Babachir Lawal, Secretary to the Government of the Federation, SGF, from corruption.

Reno said this in reaction to the raid of the home of former General Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Andrew Yakubu, in Kaduna.

The EFCC agents recovered $9.2 million from Yakubu’s safe and an additional £72,000.

The anti-graft agency has said that it was the largest amount they had recovered in recent weeks.

Reno, in a comment on his Facebook page, recalled that former President Goodluck Jonathan fired Yakubu for corruption in 2014.

He said the All Progressives Congress (APC) at that time, attacked his former principal for removing Yakubu as NNPC boss.

Reno said: “Andrew Yakubu looted and Goodluck Jonathan fired him while the EFFC investigated him. The Grasscutter, Babachir Lawal awarded a contract to himself and received kickbacks from the company yet President Muhammadu Buhari didn’t fire him and instead wrote so long a letter to defend him!

“And you are here, a brainwashed APC loyalist, celebrating? Do you know who criticized GEJ for firing Andrew Yakubu in 2014? It was the APC. It is because they believe you are mentally lazy that is why they expect you to blame GEJ today!”

Recall that last week, Reno took a swipe at the APC, saying the party is a scam and total failure.

He listed some of the failed promises made by the party during their campaign, insisting that the APC was the biggest scam in history.
