Former Presidential aide, Reno Omokri has fired a direct shot at the newly appointed campaign spokesperson of the Bola Tinubu presidential campaign, Festus Keyamo over his controversial statement on the prolonged strike of the Academic Staff Union of University (ASUU).

GreenWhiteGreen GWG reports that Keyamo during an interview on Channels TV on Friday alleged that the union was being unrealistic with its demands.

According to him, ASUU cannot blackmail the government to borrow money to pay the striking members amidst cash shortages when other sectors of the economy also need attention.

Reacting to his statement, Reno, via his social media handle, slammed Keyamo questioning how the government will abandon their responsibilities, the crisis they created and ask parents to beg ASUU.

He added that while ASUU is demanding the funding of Nigerian institutions, the government is busy gifting billions to the Niger Republic.

He said: “What Festus Keyamo said about ASUU on Channels is most unfortunate. How can a government, whose duty it is to manage this crisis they created, abandon their duties and ask parents to go and beg ASUU? ASUU has been begging this government. Yet, when Niger begged them, Buhari gave them ₦1.1 billion.

“All ASUU is asking for is funding for our universities. This government that is busy gifting billions to Niger and building railways for them, can’t say they don’t have funds. How much did the Accountant General steal? Almost ₦100 billion. Buhari should use that to fund ASUU”
