Some Nigerians have taken to social media to denounce the President-elect, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, ahead of tomorrows inauguration, saying he’s not their president.
The PUNCH reports that the move by some Nigerians on social media
followed the comments by the
Serving Overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, on Saturday, that he will never call Tinubu, his president.
Bakare, a renowned cleric and card-
carrying member of Tinubu’s party,
All Progressives Congress, alleged
a series of malpractices during the
2023 elections, insisting that the
Independent National Electoral
Commission made a mess of the
electioneering process.
On Sunday, some Nigerians stormed the microblogging platform, Twitter, and trended the hashtag #TinubulsnotMyPresident,
announcing LP candidate Peter Obi,
their leader.
One Dallas tweeted; “Nigerians didn’t vote for Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the 2023 presidential election. A drug dealer cannot be my president
because I am not a drug dealer.
#TinubuDidNotWinAnyElection
#TinubulsNotMyPresident”
Another Twitter user wrote: “BOLA
AHMED TINUBU IS NOT MY
PRESIDENT. He is a unconstitutional President-elect and will also be an unconstitutional President if he is sworn in.
