Outrage as ex-president Buhari gifts dollars to singer in Katsina
A viral video of Nigeria’s former president, Muhammadu Buhari, handing a dollar bill to singer Dan Soja Autan at an event in Katsina has sparked outrage across social media.
In the footage, the ex-president was seen casually pulling out the dollar note from his pocket and gifting it to the singer, who appeared to be performing at the event.
The gesture has drawn criticism from Nigerians, with many questioning the former president’s actions amidst ongoing economic challenges in the country.
Critics argue that such acts raise questions about Buhari’s financial dealings, particularly in light of calls for investigations into his administration and former Central Bank Governor Godwin Emefiele.
It is worth noting that Emefiele is currently under investigation for alleged financial misconduct during Buhari’s administration.
Some Nigerians are demanding that Buhari be included in the ongoing probes, citing his role in economic policies that many believe contributed to the country’s financial woes.
