Forget April 1st! Today Is The All Fools' Day; The Day Nigerians Voted Buhari Into Power




The hashtag was #NigeriaDecides.


But they decided wrong!


On the 29th March, 2015 was the day Nigerians boldly decided without an iota of doubt that Muhammadu Buhari is the best presidential candidate for the next four years. And they voted him.



Shouldn't today be the All Fools' Day?


Forget April 1st. For Nigerians, that day is just a waste of a commemoration.


We voted not the angel we thought, but the demon within it.


Only fools can be deceived. And the APC presidential candidate was successful in making us bigger fools.


Apart from that, will he not be voted into adminstrative power again in 2019 if we keep on being fools?


Don't be decieved that he worked hard to ensure the return of the Dapchi girls, so he gets a pat on the back and a one-way ticket to the next tenure. That's the real definition of the fools' we just might be.


Think and change. We need a better leader.

The private sector, considered as elites, are even battling on how to pay their employees who are now on official vacation.
