“Scripture says give to the poor. It does not say give to those with smartphones and regular data” – Reno Omokri

Nigerian lawyer and writer, Reno Omokri has pointed out the difference between the poor and the middle class.

The former Goodluck Jonathan aide is not a fan of giving online. In the post which he made via Twitter, he revealed that people with regular data are not poor but middle class citizens. He also revealed that those who give to them don’t know what poverty means.

“Scripture says give to the poor. It does not say give to those with smartphones and regular data. If you think those are the poor, then you don’t know what poverty means. You are giving to the middle class (and there is nothing wrong with that)”, he wrote.
