Reno Omokri mocks President Buhari's war against corruption fight

Below is what he shared...
You claim to have raided Supreme Court Justices homes to arrest them because they are corrupt yet you invited a man who admitted that he used $500,000 to host Professor Wole Soyinka into your cabinet! You hate corruption so much yet your cabinet plays host to a man who admitted paying ₦78 million (equivalent to $515,000 in 2014 when the deal was struck) for the building, maintenance and configuration of his website as governor!
Mr. President, it seems to me that joining your party, APC, is like a baptism that washes you free of corruption. No wonder your party is filled with the most transparent politicians in Nigeria! Of course should we be surprised? After all, 'Abacha never stole'!

An open letter to President Buhari

The President of Nigeria,
Greetings, your Excellency

Dear Sai Buhari I know you would be working hard in your office when this piece surfaces on your computer, I wake up in the middle of the night to type this on my PC, I was down-shuttered and under sweating environment because there was no light. My locality is out of power access in this ‘Change Era’ of yours, things seems to be the same since evermore. I can’t sleep as I reminisce about the wide roads being narrowed by highly concentrated pit holes which left a tapered space to walk through during the day. We keep galloping like a stallion inside our motor just like we do everyday.

Mark Zuckerberg Excited Over Game Built By 11 Year Old Nigeria Boy

screen520x924
The lad pictured above is Olatayo Sobomehin, an 11 years old who built Spike Rush, an infinite, side-scrolling game.
Named after needle spikerush (a plant), the game is set in a magical forest where spikes are everywhere.
Players have super powers to help them learn to survive in the forest. At random times, the gravity reverses and players must live upside down.
The players must ensure the spikes don’t defeat them. To do this, they must swipe up to jump over the spikes, swipe left and right to move back and forth, and double tap to activate special powers.
Mark Zuckerberg, who only just got back from visiting Lagos, Nairobi and Abuja, caught up with Tayo recently and was impressed with his game.
