Nigerians Attack Buhari’s Aide For Saying Second Niger Bridge Is Buhari’s ‘Gift’ To Citizens

Bashir Ahmed, Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari, has come under fire on Twitter after saying that the ongoing construction of the Second Niger Bridge would be a gift to Nigerians when completed.

In a tweet on Sunday Ahmed said, “When the Second Niger Bridge is completed, it will be a gift that will keep the President @MBuhari’s administration in the minds of millions of Nigerians for a very long time.”

But irked by his description of construction done with public funds as a gift, Nigerians have rained hard knocks on him.

In one tweet, @NekkaSmith said, “Nigeria’s money! Not Buhari’s gift. Nigeria is bigger than one man.”
