Omokri noted in his response how he made the government.
He said:
“Dear @PHARM_KABIR,
I am not like Nasir El-Rufai, who was exposed by a wiki leaks US cable as a taxi man before he got into government. Or like Muhammadu Buhari, whose father was a notorious rustler in Katsina. Or like the pampers wearing urine merchant leader of your party, whose age and wealth come with a gigantic question mark.
My father was Director of Public Prosecution when he was just 26. My grandfather was an Olu of Warri, my ancestor, Dom Domingos was the first West African to have a university degree.
I became resident in the US at the age of 9. I schooled in England. I worked in Parliament. I bought my house abroad long before being appointed as a Presidential spokesman.
I served in government as one of the very, very, few Nigerians that left with a CLEAN record. That is why I have the audacity to tell Buhari he is as useless to Nigeria as the p in psychology.
And after government, to the glory of God and by His grace, I became a Number One bestselling author, who sleeps and wakes up and earns royalties, and a well sought after paid public speaker.
Kabir, governnment did not make me. I made Government!“
