An influential APC chieftain has joined others who criticised the president over his red carpet treatment and fanfare during his visit to condole parents of Dapchi girls.
APC lawmaker and the senator representing Kaduna central, Shehu Sani, has joined those criticising President Muhammadu Buhari for acknowledging the grand reception in his honour during a trip to Government Girls Science Technical College (GGSTC), Dapchi, Yobe state.
The special adviser to the president on new media, Bashir Ahmad had on Wednesday, shared pictures of the president smiling as he adjusted his native attire on the red carpet, which sparked outrage on social media.
Most of those who criticised the president, said the trip ought to be devoid of fanfare since he went there to condole parents whose children were abducted by Boko Haram insurgents.
In a swift reaction, the outspoken senator took to his Twitter page on Thursday, and said the school is not the right place for red carpet, adding that gesture is for international events such as the Grammy musical awards or the Academy Awards popularly known as Oscars.
“A red carpet should be for the Oscars or Grammy or Caines but not for Dapchi,” he wrote.
