9 Funny Names Nigerians Call President Buhari by Samguine: 11:44am On Jul 20, 2016 |
President Muhammadu Buhari, the 5th civilian president of Nigeria is to Nigerians what they deem him to be. To this end, many Nigerians prefer to call him some names owing to his background, political life, and the how the nation has fared under his one year administration. However, many make mockery and humour of situations to christen the president 72 years after his official christening by parents. Here are some funny names Nigerians call President Muhammadu Buhari Sai Baba This is the slogan, used majorly during the electioneering campaign in 2015. And till today, Northerners use the word frequently to praise the president. In one of his visits to Kaduna State months after election, the chants of ‘Sai Baba’ rented the air and this has stuck as one of Mr President’s name. Baba go slow As the name implies, Buhari has been labelled a slow president in many quarters. The name became rampant during the one-year celebration of his ascension to office. Is Baba actually slow? That is left to you to judge. Goro President Goro in Hausa language is kola and many northerners are known for consuming it. The name is rampant among southerner, especially for northern traders. Being a northerner, President Buhari has nbeen named a Goro President. Anti-corruption Since assuming power, president Buhari’s anti-corruption war has been ‘well fought.’ With the arrest of prominent names such as Femi Fani Kayode, Sambo Dasuki, Olisa Metuh, Lawal Jafaru Isa and others, Buhari has earned himself a new name; Anti-corruption. Dollardinho Nigerians are passionate about how the currency does against the US Dollars. However, the naira has been depreciating in recent times. For this reason, the president has been named the ‘Dollardinho’ of our time. Daura President President Buhari's certificate saga has been on for a while. Many believed he has no WAEC certificate and this has earned him a new name - Daura President. Ajala the traveler In his first year in office, President Muhammadu Buhari embarked upon 29 foreign trips despite the myriad of challenges facing the country. Many accused him of staying of staying off the country more than he stays at home. For this, the president has been named Ajala the traveler. Old Soja This parlance is usually reserved for retired military officers in Nigeria. Being a former military president, the name seem to be well justified. Baba Zahra President Buhari is being addressed as such because of one of his pretty daughters, Zahra, whose beauty was in the spotlight during her father’s campaigns and after.
