Spokesman to President Muhammadu Buhari,
Mr. Femi Adesina is being ridiculed by Nigerians for comments he made
in defence of his principal.
In a series of media appearances which
culminated in an editorial on Wednesday, May 25, 2016, Adesina, a former
newspaper editor, said that Buhari is doing well and denied that
Nigerians were suffering under the new president.
Adesina surprisingly hailed Buhari’s
decision to increase the pump price of petrol to N145 as one of the best
things that the president has done since assuming office on May 29,
2015.
An outstanding cartoon-editorial by Mike
Asuquo captures the mood of Nigerians at the moment. See it below in
his tweet. The cartoon has already gone viral and it serves to show a
presidential spokesman who is not only out of touch, but also
insensitive to the feelings of Nigerians.
