I don’t blame the Family for sending her abroad while others are on strike here, I blame the students here or anyone that has ever been affected by ASUU strike that will vote this evil again.

My annoyance is not even for AISHA BUHARI because its not the first time she is doing this. I’m more annoyed with f**lish students at home supporting this same party in basis of tribalism, religion, my turn, our party. pic.twitter.com/pwpK41Iu5s

In the midst of a prolonged ASUU strike that has gone on for 8/9 months, Aisha Buhari, the president’s wife, still went on social media to post & celebrate the graduation of her daughter from a foreign University! If I say I’m surprised, I’d be lying. These people have no shame!

Aisha Buhari no send una. Cry till next year, she will not mind your tears. For her, it’s a time to celebrate a win and she is celebrating.
Don’t worry about ASUU, they got nothing on the elites.
2023 is coming in fast, they will end their tenure and go home
God help us all
