Nigerians have bashed the press statement made by the presidency to mark the ''Africa Day 2020,'' commemorated by the African Union Commission in collaboration with the World Health Organization.
The speech conveyed to Nigerians via the official Spokesperson to the President, Garba Shehu, stressed the need for ''Peace, security, unity and harmony are prerequisites for development in Africa.”
However, Nigerians were very disappointed with the speech as they cited the ineptitudes of the current government, saying peace did not exist in Nigeria, to begin with. Or even the President's state, to start with.

Actually ensuring peace in the midst of people like you will be very difficult. Just wish the president and the continent good instead

Buhari ain't even aware of this tweet, it's the media guys that are managing the account that are tweeting. So don't bother yourself because we don't have a president in Nigeria and it's quite unfortunate.

Real hypocrite! The speech was probably a copy & paste.
