President Muhammadu Buhari has called on protesters in London who asked him to #ResumeOrResign to “also come back (to Nigeria) and join us.”
Some Nigerians had staged a protest at Abuja House, London between 5pm on Friday, August 18 and 9am on Saturday, August 19, 2017.
The president returned to the country August 19 at 4.36pm.
Quote
“I am very happy with the national prayers that cut across religions and ethnicity; people were praying.
In fact, some groups in London came and sang the national anthem and asked that I should go back home. Indeed, I have come back home. I hope those who went there are not stuck there. (I hope) they will come back and join us.
Those that are stuck there with the Brexit, I hope they have weighed the implications that it won’t affect them, including those that have property there.
Those who are not paying tax here; I hope when they sell their property there, they will bring some of the money here. We need it very badly here,”
Buhari said.
I have been reporting for several years now and I am very interested in visual news reportage with strong inclusion of photos and video multimedia.

This man could be as unrepentant as the devil himself. Those who came to London to chase you home have long returned to Nigeria. Those who joined hands to chase you home from your lopsided "Vitamin taking" location abroad were true Nigerians who love the country more than u do. Those you are asking to come home are those who have built hospitals, Health Centers, Water supply and bought "I pass my neighbor" for their elderly parents and relative in the country u govern. Those u are making the mockery of are the people whose hard work and sweat have sustained lives in a country whose citizens have little or nothing to write home about. You cannot be laughing and joking about such issue that caused the nation a huge embarrassment in the international arena. Please Buhari, grow up and find some strength to design means of tackling the problems facing the people you govern, leave the jabs alone. Because an adage says that "a man does not chase rat while his house burns". It is okay to express some sense of humor but in all seriousness, what you went through during the 104 days in London and what an average Nigerian is going through right now does not call for your untimely jokes. Get Nigeria on the right track, make Nigeria great again, then and only then can we be ready for your jokes.

MY DEAR BUHARI, TO BE IN THE OFFICE OF A PRESIDENT OF A NATION IS NOT A JOKE, TAKE YOUR WORK SERIOUS, AND MAKE A POSITIVE CHANGE IN NIGERIA, THE QUESTION YOU SHOULD ASK YOURSEF IS WHAT WILL YOU BE REMEMBER FOR? IS IT NAGETIVE OR POSITIVE.
