The ironic thing is that according to the Global Terrorism Index, Nigeria is more insecure than Mali. Nigeria is the world’s 3rd most insecure nation. Mali is 13th. Who should be giving peace to who? Tell the agbaya to give Nigeria peace before giving it to Mali#BuhariTormentor pic.twitter.com/Wkd0oquoU1

I trust him to just go there, pose for photographs, say no meaningful words and head back to Abuja satisfied in his mind that he has resolved the crisis in Mali.

Wherever we go around the world even Mali, they’ll treat us based on Down pointing backhand index list first before they see your CV.

Nice one Mr president. Wish your excellency a safe trip back. Moreso sir, he should learn from there a lasting solution to the looting and insane looting of his cabinet here at home. So that when he returns by God’s grace it can only be better. Bros right now e rough die.

It takes minutes to get to either Zamfara, Kaduna, or Kastina. It takes hours to get to Mali. Buhari neglected those states with humans bleeding and corpses littering the streets to head to Mali. You people have to tell us the kind of human being you elected as President.
President Buhari’s Mali trip in the middle of a global pandemic proves he is deliberately ignoring the bleeding parts of the country he governs.
