@bitcoinchief: Lol e reach to
@mc_ichie: Na wetin fit Buhari…The guy for even wear skirt and blouse
@kv_by_kelvin: Lmaoooooooo. Jokes aside I truly do believe there’s a look for different type of event. And this outfit ain’t the one for this type of event. If you re going to hang with friends, yes but going to meet a president ((even though don’t care for this particular one) is still not right. Dress appropriately!
@emekaemerald: He is thinking of withdrawing the award
@mz_barbss: I think it’s the lipstick because the attire is not so bad..
@kv_by_kelvin: And he has red lippy on, painted nails. Personally I’m all for living your truth but also know your environment whilst at it. You know buhari disposition about this type of look yet you went in your full glory to shake him. If he order them to arrest you now.
@bezaleel: Once again President Buhari expresses shock
@lucci_okoye: When you don’t even know the recipient you are adding to the list but na the money wey the company dey generate dey enter your eyes
@aleezahsskincare: I think it was the red lipstick that confused our presido.
@wasehembadoon: now I will definitely have that look too no cap, everyone has the right to dress the way they want but walahi every occasion get dress code, this particular one fit Nollywood gathering, but receiving an award and the president for that matter, let’s forget say plenty people no dev reason am like that, but this gabadin no follow.
@oge: Buhari see Wetin pass am! the guy sha na werey , he even wore lipstick and nails join!
@zikkhaleesi: Na the lipstick and nail polish shock baba
@thelma_ebo_: Funny as it may look but this is not an appropriate outfit to wear for this kind of event. Yes know that our government has really messed up but knowing fully well you’re meeting the president and dressing this way is totally unacceptable. Whether he is gay or not it doesn’t count. Seeing the comments here is so annoying. I can’t change his sexuality but this is not the appropriate way to dress when meeting the head of state. Na we dey cause our own problem. Knowing how the country is we should just respect ourselves.
@sandy_nene He’s trying to understand what’s going on.
@reshapeme_nig: It’s the rubywoo red abi na fenty Ezra apply for lips

@saggi: As much as he might look weird to old timers and judgmental people.. He today become symbol of something… He says never judge a book by its cover…. What he and his partner created is very powerful and useful to almost all Nigerians… Now he can tell so many people who attend in nice ironed suit to run it if it’s easy
@baff_ups_designs: But why could he not just put on a suit? For such a serious award
@slemzy_official: A country is sinking down and the president is busy honouring people with awards University has been on strike for the past months nothing has been done about it
@uzoogah: He is Gothic
@tolajubiawoyemi: And they allowed him to collect it nigeria no get law
@malikdeking Buhari will be like, who be this werey why is he not yet in prison
@ignland_housing_supply As a country that frowns at gay, this confused individual had no fear to appear in front of the president of this Great Nation indecently dressed, if Buhari is a principled man this disrespect was supposed to earn him few months in the police detention, from that event hall.
@gwinuc: This is a message to all the CEO’s. It’s not all about putting on suits, looking too bossed up and whatnot. I admire his guts.
