Oby Ezekwezeli's take on Buhari's broadcast this morning was damning.

I can give an instant Citizen's feedback to President @MBuhari that his Speech this morning was a a terrible case of MISSED OPPORTUNITY. ✍️️

Missed opportunity to calm frayed nerves, engender peace and mend fences. This is a man who just escaped from the claws of serious illness and whose actions, comments and inactions plunged the nation to it's divisions and disunity.
Buhari I am one of your supporters but with the speech I heard this morning , you lack wisdom of your age, understanding of the times you live in and you are the greater agent of the agitations springing up around the nation.

Lets imagine a Buhari first apologizing for being away from duty all this while, then providing clarity on the many questions Nigerians are asking pertaining to his health, then also using this golden opportunity to preach peace and unity devoid of forceful and pained intonations and even if its in pretence assure all of his support for the current unanimous call for a change in direction of the nations affairs. These would have gone a long way in changing perceptions and reduce tensions in the polity. Instead he was pretty much occupied issuing threats and shutting down all avenues for a national discourse and negotiations on the nations most pressing issue at the moment.

missed opportunity ke?

I have been reading people's post on nairaland praising him for an outstanding speech since morning

Hmmm it's really a pity we have gotten to this. Not even withstanding the fact the speech was recorded, it was devoured of any clue this man knows the situation his country is in. Being away for like ages is not enough reason for this sick man to apologize for his long absence? Why is he so unapologetic? No update on his ailing health, no redefined roadmap to getting us out of this mess, no talk to calm the nerves of the striking lecturers, and many other pressing issues. All that were there in were threats and threats as usual. Threats that never achieved anything since he came into power. And still calling bokoharam strikes as soft target was the height of his insensitivity and lack of human conscience. Shah, people deserve the kind of leadership they get. But this man should do over 180m Nigerians a collective favour; resign on the bases of cluelesness and ailing health. He's a chronic failure

baba don suffer.


but really, baba looks like he needs another 100 days off.. this time, to the US.

absolutely correct, am sure the dullard who is a supposed president of the giant of Africa is not even aware of the recent happenings in Nigeria ,he was just programmed like a robot to read an already prepared speech of course for the gullible supporters and those who are the originators of hate speech.
let me use this opportunity to welcome the cabals back to Nigeria and also remind them that we remain resolute in demanding justice and what is right.

I concur with her

The truth is that nobody can and will ever pleased the world.

Buhari returned home after his first medical trip without making a Nationwide speech, people were busy complaining.

Now that he decided to open a new leaf, Madam 'I too know' is complaining again.

If Jesus Chtist could be criticized, who is Buhari to please the Nigerians?

Personally, I think Buhari has done well for the 6 minutes broadcast.

At least, Fayose can not rant again about his famous "Life support" tales while FFK will keep quiet for the time being.

Ok

no matter what the president does, they will make noise, he was dead now his speech is short, he just resumed for god's sake, good thing he ignores them
no man can be perfect
