Many Nigerians took to micro-blogging site, Twitter on Tuesday to poke fun at President Muhammadu Buhari’s campaign promises, most of which have not been fulfilled, after three years in office.
The Twitter users, tweeting via the hashtag #MakeChangeGreatAgain berated the President for his poor performance in office across sectors from the economy to security, health care, poverty, double standards, education and the war against corruption.
See some tweets;
Sixth promise is “real GDP growth of 10% per annum”.
Facts are stubborn things. Fantasy meets reality.
Nigeria’s real GDP Growth (%)
2015: 2.7
2016: -1.5
2017: 0.82#MakeChangeGreatAgain— Onye Nkuzi (@cchukudebelu) June 12, 2018
This is the kind of change I promised in 2015.

On Security, the APC promised to ‘Employ at least an extra 100,000 police officers and establish a properly trained and equipped Federal Anti-Terrorism Multi-Agency Task Force to destroy Boko Haram and any form of insurgency.’. Another lie #MakeChangeGreatAgain

The APC manifesto talked about “a decent life for every Nigerian”. But never has the life of an average Nigerian been so indecent. “Jobs Jobs Jobs” but more than 10 million citizens have lost their jobs in 3 years under this govt #MakeChangeGreatAgain pic.twitter.com/8J2MzjCw88

I’m not going to talk about free education, because even then, I didn’t agree with it, but how will we fix #Nigeria‘s housing deficit as promised rather than the 17 million shortfall that @hmkemiadeosun talked about in January? https://t.co/HuoWzB8nv6 #MakeChangeGreatAgain

The President, as a Presidential Candidate pledged that he’ll put an end to ‘Medical Tourism’, and that he’ll ensure elected officials patronise our Local Hospitals. What do we get instead? London trips to ‘Netflix and Chill’. #MakeChangeGreatAgain
