@ChidiOdinkalu said: “Now, @MBuhari tells you what is important to him. If you don’t want to take heed, it’s your problem.”
@renoomokri tweeted: “19 clergymen abducted in Niger yesterday. Hundreds of #KankaraStudents abducted by bandits on Friday. 30 Zamfara villagers killed. 16 Kano residents abducted along Abuja/Kaduna road. And Buhari was visiting his cows? General #Buhari was groomed to be doomed!
@ayemojubar said: “To the president of Nigeria, the state of his cows is more crucial than a visit to Kankara where over 300 students were abducted in the same state. This health / fitness check for Buhari is overdue.”
@YasohMagic said: “Buhari is not bothered by anything. I mean, amid the Zabarmari massacre and the Kankara school abduction how can a president of a country choose to visit his cows in Daura? This isn’t right.”
