A critic Farooq Kperogi has stated that President Muhammadu Buhari’s only job is to prove periodically that he’s still alive after which he goes back in self-isolation.
He further disclosed that President Buhari’s job has been played on Nigerians since 2016 in which he pacifies distraught Nigerians for the time and then continues with his life.
Farooq stated this after the President’s address to Nigerians today;
“Buhari has by far the cushiest job anyone can ever have in the world. He enjoys all the perks and privileges of being “president” but disappears from public view even in moments of national strife, which causes panic-stricken citizens to ask to see him or hear from him.
He routinely ignores them, which causes morbid rumours about him to fester and circulate on social media. When darkly ill-natured chatter about his very life emerges, escalates, and takes roots, his handlers will post photos of him on social media to show that he’s alive, which inflames even more ghoulish speculations.”
‘Then he finally appears or addresses the nation after hours and hours of rehearsals, which nonetheless unmasks his declining cognitive faculties, and mentally low-wattage citizens, who are the victims of his ineptitude and presidency by absenteeism, gyrate wildly in futile, impotent exultation.”
“They even mock people who had suggested that Buhari was sick, dead, or dying. It has been the same script since 2016. In other words, Buhari’s highest achievement is to periodically prove that he is alive after which he goes back to his habitual self-isolation and insouciance.
This well-practised melodrama is designed to anaesthetize distraught citizens in light of the progressively horrid conditions they live with and help to conceal or excuse Buhari’s incompetence for a while, and life goes on.’
