Below are some of the reactions culled by our correspondent.

@nafiumohammad: Remove power, sir, we will only remember his failure in that aspect.

@AkiimReid1: All these you mentioned were half-baked and didn’t work. Failed people.

@fash360degree: Above ALL, Baba Buhari showed himself as a good example that ONE CAN STILL BE AN UPRIGHT LEADER/NIGERIAN even if everybody around is a crook.

His only failing is, underestimating politicians, Overtrusting appointees with delegations. Nonreshuffling of the cabinet. Yet Best HoS ever.

@HalimaBetara: May Allah reward Baba Buhari with Aljannatul Firdaus.

@chiukwujioke: He failed woefully in everything.

@uchesm: He will also be remembered for bringing Nigerian from Top to Bottom.

@frvzzy: Literally almost everything Baba has done good 👍🏾 Allah ya saka da Alkairi

@dr_laraba: And you will be remembered for telling a series of serious lies like this one you typed to our faces, just to put food on your table. God dey Ooo…it’s well, you have only 18 days.

@Ofonmbukituh: 1 – 20 and massive corruption isn’t included?

@DrCharlesOdogwu: Education and Health, but he is in London to see his dentist. 😂 Comedians

@Filio_Homo19: How does all these affect the increase in the price of rice?

@FitJoe44: You forgot to add he’ll be remembered for traveling at every opportunity 😂, even when it’s not necessary for him to travel.

@Sydneychinedu1: Education and Heath reform; but he still travels to the UK for teeth treatment, I wonder why you all don’t have an atom of shame in saying this.
