Nigerians have tackled First Lady, Aisha Buhari over a video she posted taunting the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami.
Aisha in an Instagram post on Sunday shared a video showing Pantami, an Islamic cleric shedding tears during one of his sermons.
“A chire tsoro a yi abinda ya dace (Be courageous to do the right thing), ” the First Lady captioned the video in Hausa.
In the video, Pantami burst into tears after his reciter read a verse of the Holy Quran.
“That is the Garden we shall give as their own to those of Our servants who were devout,” read the reciter from Surah Maryam, Verse 63.
In response, Pantami sobbed, “O Allah! Make me one of them. O Allah! Make me one of them!”
Reactions from social media users have trailed the video as many stated that the First Lady was simply being hypocritical.
Others stated that the caption written by the First Lady is a confirmation of the allegations that Pantami had connection with terrorists.
Some queried the inherent message in the caption written by the First Lady, urging her to be more vocal on what she wants the Minister to do.
See reactions below:
He is a fraud. If he wasn’t he wouldn’t be procuring fraudulent “Professorial” position for himself even though he knows he is not qualified for it. He is trying very hard to appear normal. A green snake under the green grass.

The North is cursed & their curse is Fulani. They are all terrorists & they celebrates terrorism. Its to show that Fulani thrives on terrorism & the conquered indigenous people can’t do nothing about it except the JUNGLE(Nigeria) disintegrates.

From all indications, GMB wants Pantami to be more significant in Nigerian politics. It seems he’s grooming him to be president for his ideologies of being happy when people of other faiths die.
