FCT, Abuja - As Nigerians look forward to the 2027 election, a prominent social media personality and former presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has asked the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) to focus on 'building the country'.

In a tweet on his verified X (formerly Twitter) page on Tuesday evening, June 11, Omokri, a chieftain of the PDP and open supporter of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, said if the opposition wants to "get rid of" Tinubu democratically, "we will have a shot again in 2027".

The diaspora-based socio-political commentator urged his co-PDP members to "cooperate" with President Tinubu and his government "and make Nigeria a better place".

Omokri also disagreed with Sule Lamido, a PDP leader and ex-governor of Jigawa state, who said in a recent interview that Nigeria is rich enough to pay any amount as minimum wage.

His (Omokri's) post reads in part:

"Let us build our country. If we want to get rid of Tinubu democratically, we will have a shot again in 2027. But for now, let us cooperate with him and his government and make Nigeria a better place."
