                         President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan has kicked out his controversial social media point man, Reno Omokri and has replaced him with Obi Asika who takes over as the new senior special assistant on social media. According to SaharaReporters , Mr. Jonathan move is seen as an apparent maneuver to re-energize his social media image following a growing slide in his electoral fortunes, as well as a series of scandals involving Reno.
