Few hours after his tweet, the president’s followers reduced drastically and Omokri came back to ask for more.

“Dear Nigerians,  When I started the #UnfollowBuhari campaign as part of my #EndSARS protest, some laughed. Well, look. In just 1 hour, we have reduced Buhari’s following by 100,000. Never underestimate your influence.
When Nigerians wake up, government will be afraid of us!”
