President Muhammadu Buhari, while addressing the joint session listed the achievements of his administration, was interrupted intermittently by protesting lawmakers. Punch reports that , as he mentioned each achievement, they chorused, ‘No!’ The development forced the All Progressives Congress lawmakers to clash as the opposition lawmakers booed the President.
When he said, “We have weathered the storms and made progress on every front,” They screamed, “Nooooo! Boooo!”
When
he said, “The economy has recovered well,” the lawmakers screamed
again. Buhari who was displeased with the development was forced to say,
“The world is watching us and we are supposed to be above this.”
The
protesters however continued, particularly when Buhari said his
administration had made success in its anti-corruption campaign.
