But the news has rubbed Nigerians the wrong way. Many of those who commented on the official page of the British news agency lashed out President Muhammadu Buhari for allowing such a terrible fate to befall the country in just 15 months.

Some accused Buhari of being too old and out-dated in his methods of running the economy while others believe that his seeming lack of ideas put Nigeria in this situation.

“Nigeria was first in recession when this Chronic-Illiterate was head of state (1983-1985)…; and now… just ONE YEAR into a 4year tenure, Nigeria is BACK in recession… What a ‘change’ #BuhariResign!” a user, Patrick Osikemhekhai Azelakeh said.

Eddy Obinwa said, “What did u think b/4 when we ave a president @Mbuhari @Nigpresident who doesn’t even know what modern age is all about apart from sending his kids to schools abroad while promising his fellow Abokis some f**king change which they cant even spell within 3seconds…. hhahahahahaahahah (CHANGE)”

“Those re what happens when govt took the money it should used to built country economy to fought its political enemies and oppositions ,also drove away its foreign investors with its awkward policies , I’m not surprised ,i saw it coming , i said it but some people claimed tht i was speaking out of hate , but today all re in the same sinking ship ,with confused leaders,” Eloo Mistai Cocel Agbasi wrote.

“When a wicked man rule the people suffer. That’s what Nigeria is experiencing today. The man only wanted to have the power. Now it has been given to him but the rest is history. Hopefully Nigerians will gain their senses back soon or else the future generations will not forgive us,” Adeiza Momoh said.
