President Buhari’s media team has been very inconsistent in their strategy in presenting the number one citizen rightly to Nigerians. Since the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, his media team headed by Femi Adesina and Garba Shehu has been below average.

Recently the news broke of the police arresting a man who named his dog “Buhari” which drew the attention of Nigerians to the dictatorial tendencies of this government. Once again Buhari’s media team went straight to work to salvage the president from collateral damage.

While trying to solve the problem of averting the perception of Buhari as a dictator, they again painted a picture of an unserious president who picks up a newspaper only to see “cartoons” and “caricatures” at a time when Nigeria is going through one of the worst economic crises in history.

When next you complain about how bad the economy is and companies folding up, bear in mind that the man you elected to turn around the tide is busy paying attention to cartoons in the newspapers rather than reading about the real problems facing Nigerians such as inflation, naira depreciation, retrenchments, corruption, looming economic recession, and the cry for restructuring both politically and economically.

His media team created a picture that the president does not care about how Nigerians feel. All he cares about is how to look fresh and younger. To achieve this, he turns to cartoons pages of Newspapers to read and laugh while you cry.

It is yet to be seen if the presidency’s response via the media team did any damage control, but what we know now is that you can be arrested for naming your dog “Buhari”, we also know now that Buhari cares less about serious issues as he turns first to the back pages of newspapers to read cartoons, thanks to Garuba Shehu for this intriguing revelation.
