Nigerians! What a people!
So Buhari returned to Nigeria today after 15 days out of the country,
and the next thing people knew was to report to him all that had been
happening in the country while he was away. And trust Nigerians to do it
in that inimitabl style which only them can muster.
Nigerians on social media on Friday created a new hashtag
#BabaWhileYouWereGone with which they are now running social commentary
across social media platforms such as Twitter and Facebook.
The hashtag, which appears to have gone viral, essentially speaks to
the return of the presidential candidate of the All Progressives
Congress, Muhammadu Buhari, to Nigeria after almost two-week sojourn in
the United Kingdom.
The hashtag is being used by many supporters of the Buhari/APC
campaign and social media savvy followers to report to him what
transpired in the country during his absence.
All day long, the hashtag has been a vehicle of light-hearted
bantering and humour, which panders to satirical sleights and
commentaries, while also gaining notoriety for excoriating the Buhari
and APC opposition.
The hashtag apparently underlines the genius of Nigerians in finding
comic relief from any event or situation, whether tragic, frivolous or
insignificant.
It was so hilarious, you should ENSURE you are seated while reading the tweets below:
