The son of the President of Nigeria Muhammadu Buhari, Yusuf, caused a serious controversy.
Yusuf has broken the women’s hearts all over Nigeria as suddenly appeared in public alongside with his father Buhari yesterday, May 28.
Daily Post reports that put on in flowing traditional attire and a matching cap, Yusuf and his sister, Zaha were taken by the shot of photo reporters at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport. The fair-complexioned man flashed media war as many Nigerians have been questioning about his whereabouts before now
Some social media users kicked knocks at him for failing to show up before and during the poll but only to appear.
Others consider that Yusuf’s appearance before the March 28 presidential poll would have attracted more votes for the president-elect.
Meanwhile, some residents accused Buhari from covering Yusuf from the general public, saying that there was more to that than meets the eyes.
A banker who named himself as Ibrahim said: “I never knew Buhari had a son. I was shocked when the picture appeared on twitter this morning and many people were talking about it. To me that is not fair. Why did Buhari choose to hide his son from the people he’s coming to rule? We remember that before Obama was elected president of the United States, he made his two daughters, Malia and Sasha public and the world saw them. To me the general didn’t do well if that is truly his son.”
Another resident, Sheyi said: “I have been having a serious time on twitter since morning. Nigerian ladies have been fighting over Yusuf, who is said to be Buhari’s son. Well, not until now, I never knew Buhari had a son that is this handsome. Buhari should explain to us why he hid his son from us”.
“But who told us that is Buhari’s son? The general didn’t introduce him to us as his son. We saw Buhari’s family picture and the so-called Yusuf is not there, so what is this argument all about. I think we should wait for Buhari to tell us who the guy is before we conclude. And if he’s truly Buhari’s son, then I am disappointed,” added Michael, a media practitioner.
