Aisha wonders if Buhari still knows he is the President of the country.
She tweeted in response to Buhari’s speech, “He is working with the Ministry of Health? Are you sure Buhari still knows he is President?
“Anyway those who said he shouldn’t address how do they feel? Finally this address is adequately inadequate! Let him do one in hausa. We will translate.”
